Easy Roasted Winter Vegetables

By

roasted winter vegetablesIt’s a question we might ask (or be asked) every day: What’s for dinner? To keep it simple, Primal, and Primal-keto, that answer can easily be meat and vegetables every night. Day after day. There’s nothing wrong with that, folks. It gets the job done well, and the formula can be easily changed to accommodate preferences and banish boredom. Roast chicken instead of searing steak; broil salmon instead of baking pork chops; steam broccoli instead of boiling asparagus; stir-fry mixed veggies instead of serving a raw salad. You get the idea.

Roasting vegetables is an indispensable cooking technique and meal prep time-saver. Roasting veggies adds caramelized flavor that will make it a pleasure to eat any oven-kissed leftover vegetables again the next day. Make sure to pair vegetables with similar cook times together and cut the pieces in as uniform pieces as you can to ensure even cooking.

Experiment with your favorite vegetables. We like a mix of starchy and cruciferous vegetables which make a hearty side dish. Serve with your favorite type of meat, or add leftovers to your morning eggs, or Big-ass Salad for lunch.

Easy Roasted Winter Vegetables

Time: 50 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

roasted winter vegetables

  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 3 parsnips (about 1 ½ cups chopped)
  • 3 medium carrots (about 1 cup chopped)
  • ½ red cabbage (about 2 cups chopped)
  • 2 leeks, cut into coins
  • 2 small heads of bok choy, sliced in half or quartered
  • 4 cloves garlic, grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 Tbsp. Avocado Oil
  • ¼ cup Primal Kitchen Oil and Vinegar Vinaigrette & Marinade

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375ºF. Cut all of the vegetables. Leeks tend to be very dirty—wash and drain the leek slices well after cutting them.

Toss all of the vegetables except the bok choy with the grated garlic, avocado oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Lay the vegetables on a parchment-covered sheet pan in a single layer. Place the sheet pan in the oven for 15–20 minutes.

Remove the pan from the oven. Add the sliced bok choy to the pan and pour on the Primal Kitchen dressing. Toss all of the vegetables in the dressing and lay the vegetables in a single layer again.

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems.

But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
