Our meals last week
04/11/10: Black Bean and Vegetable Soup from Veganomicon and baked potato wedges. I left out the peppers and celery in the soup (we were out) and omitted the cumin because I wanted a non-cumin black bean soup. It turned out beautifully and I finally have a black bean soup recipe I really like. Yay!

I'm crazy about brussels sprouts and cauliflower too, but I've never tried roasting them. How do you do it?

[cassidyrose]

I cut the sprouts in half (or in quarters if they are big) and the cauliflower in bit-sized pieces. I toss them with a bit of olive oil and a whole lot of lemon pepper and a bit of salt. I spread them out on a sheet pan sprayed with oil-spray-stuff and cook them at 400 degrees for ~10 minutes or until browned but not over-cooked. The cauliflower can sometimes use a cooking time closer to 12-14 minutes, the sprouts not much more then ten minutes. They are so, so good. Oddly enough, they are especially good like this after they have been refrigerated.

Yum! I'll be stopping at the market on the way home tonight. Thanks much. :)
