Side dishes...veggies, Vegetarian

Hello again! I just got finished eating a plate full of veggies. Trying to use up my veggies from the farmer’s market. Tons of kale left over still. Let me know your favorite way to make it!

 

Oven Roasted Rainbow Carrots and Radishes

Cut the stems and roots off cleaned carrots and radishes. Add to cookie sheet and coat with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes on 425 or until veggies are fork tender.

Beet, Carrot, Apple, and Ginger Juice

Dips, Dressings, and Spreads

Good morning! I have always been a bit obsessed with juicing. One time back in college I drank so much carrot juice that my skin started to turn a slight orange color. No joke! But college life and real life are much different, so nowadays I break out the juicer on the weekends and in the summertime. It is really fun to try different combinations. Plus, have you ever bought one of those pre-made juice containers? So expensive. I do occasionally buy those brands like Odwalla or Bare Naked when I see them on sale at the store. They are convenient, but there is nothing like making your own juice or smoothies from scratch. Over time I will share some of my favorite juice and smoothie recipes with you. This one is super yummy! It is refreshingly light and sweet. The ginger adds a nice zing to it. This recipe serves just one. You could always add more to sip on throughout the day.

Any good juice or smoothie recipes that you guys have?
