Рецепт Balsamic Roasted Vegetable Recipe with Rosemary, Artichokes & Zucchini
Balsamic Roasted Vegetable Recipe with Rosemary, Artichokes & Zucchini
Easter is only two days away and the excitement level is reaching epic proportions. Plans for the traditional feast are made…ham with a brown sugar glaze and studded with cloves, roasted potatoes (or maybe scalloped ones if we run a couple of extra miles first) and a vegetable side dish, such as these easy roasted vegetables (zucchini, yellow squash, artichokes, red bell pepper and onion) that are infused with the flavors of balsamic vinegar and rosemary. Of course, I am under no illusions that the excitement has anything to do with my cooking. A large fuzzy bunny with access to mounds of chocolate eggs and jellybeans is the true star of the day.
Our morning always starts with the annual search for the Easter baskets. Yes, that sneaky Easter Bunny likes to hide those baskets in the most unexpected places. We’ve found them tucked behind potted plants, on top of cabinets and even in the dryer (thank goodness we didn’t turn it on). Then it’s on to breakfast. Since we are true traditionalists, breakfast ALWAYS involves hot cross buns – traditional or my new version with dark chocolate and dried cherries. And then, the grand finale…the pièce de résistance, if you will. The Easter egg hunt.
Springtime in Utah throws us for a loop at times. Often the eggs are tucked away amongst the tulips and daffodils, but sometimes we find ourselves digging through mounds of powdery snow to find the pastel-colored eggs. Whatever the weather, that rascal of a bunny likes to make things challenging. Last year several eggs were tucked away at the tippy-top of the outdoor play set. My youngest son (T) wasn’t deterred. That boy is a climber and he was not going to be foiled by a rabbit.
Leftovers of these roasted veggies can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours and used in pasta salads, sandwich wraps (slice them thinly) and even frittatas.
