Before After

Roasted Veggies - for those asking!

(use whatever veggies you like, this is a basic recipe)

2 med red onions, peeled and quartered, 3 carrots, peeled and cut into 2 inch chunks, 2 med. yellow squash, 2 med zucchini, 2 med tomatoes cut into wedges (not too thin)  Drizzle olive oil on the veggies and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.  Toss all together to mix and spread out on a baking sheet in one layer. 

 Roast at 400 to 450 about 40 to 45 minutes.  Caramelizes the veggies and they are very good!   I use whatever veggies we have (we are farmers) :)

Hello

I already feel like you are a new friend.

I love the story about your hubby and the clock.  I laughed because everything you said sounded like it was coming out of my mouth....

I see you are at the point so many  of us are at.....we will not stop until we have control over this weight loss.

Blessings to you and keep up the good job.  You will and can get there.  So many, many wonderful people here at EP will drag you along with us on this journey.  Tell us when you fall, when you win, when you lose pounds, gain pounds.....whatever....we have all been there and we help each other make it.   Chargail

Yum!!

I love roasted veggies.  Tonight we are having roasted asparagus.  Roasted cauliflower is another favorite.

Thanks for your kind words on my blog!!  I never thought I would come so far, but now that I have I know anyone can do it as long as they put their mind to it.

Have a great evening!

HI

Those sound really good...I have always been afraid to try roasted veggies think I might burn the house down but that doesnt seem to hard...

Thanks for the comment on my blog...this website really seems like it has people who care and that is what I need. Thanks again!

Sounds yummy!

I'll have to give it a try..thanks for the idea!! ;)

I can't wait to try it.

Thanks for sharing that with me last night and I can't wait to try it. I mentioned it to my hubby and he wants to eat that too!

MMMMM

Sounds good.

Thanks for stopping by :)  I really love teaching fitness. It's quite a motivator getting paid to workout :)

 

Yummy!

Oh my gosh that sounds DELICIOUS!!!!

Thanks for sharing,

Precious

Yum!

Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog.  You're right, it's a matter of adding up all the little things to achieve big success!  Thanks for the recipe as well - sounds yummy and a good way to use up leftover produce.

my dh

my dh and your dh have something in common when it comes to alarm clocks. only when his alarm goes off in the morning (4:30 am), he hits me instead of the alarm clock and goes back to sleeping while the alarm has me wide awake! i am not kidding you! haha!

you're doing great!

Thanks for the recipe!

I can't wait to try it! 

Hiya Harliee

Thank you so much for your message on my blog..now why I decided to paint my bedroom just before xmas is a mystery to me and probably everyone else lol........my bedroom always looks a mess..stuff just chucked in the corners waiting to find a new home...my partner's (SP) bags of computor bits and cd's...so I thought..while SP is away i'll paint the walls hang nice curtains and make it look all lovely and neat....I've decided to paint the walls white..covering some horrible blue stripy paper that has been on the walls since i've moved in....like 6 years ago lol......well there was always another job to do..like the kids room and downstairs...so our room sort of got missed....so i thought if I had plain white walls...white flowing curtains..then I could have deep vibrant colours on the bed, and then because I hadnt got any particular colour on the walls I can mix and match my bedding...well that was the idea..not sure if it will work out but we'll see.

Good luck for this week hope your weightloss is good..and keep up the good work.

Best wishes Suejay x

Yum!

I know you are having a lot of fun reading the other blogs, but come on! LOL Time for a new post! :) Although, I should talk! I'm behind on it, too.

Love the roasted veggie recipe. We roast veggies all the time--exactly the same way you do, and with whatever we have on had, even beets! Yum-o!
