More Turkey day dishes!

A great way to fill that Turkey day plate with great comforting sides, without all the fat, are roasted vegtables!!! When you roast them they become carmelized gems of goodness!! Believe me, you won't be able to stop munching them!! And hey if you want to add a little crumble of bacon or crisped proscuitto to them after their roasted, that's ok! A little sweet and salty with your veggies is a great way to satisfy those tastbuds, feel like your being naughty BUT really you're eating a lowfat digs full of vitamins and fiber. But you don't have to tell your guests that, just let them enjoy all that goodness! So cut the veggies you like into chunks ( we like parsnips, carrots, turnips, butternut squash, and brussels BUT you can do whatever combo you like! Broccoli and cauliflower work great, too!) Toss your veggies in a few TBS of olive oil, sprinkle of sea salt and pepper, and a little pinch of garlic powder and place on greased cookie sheet. Roast for 20 minutes on 450 or until golden, slightly charred but not burnt, and tender. Place in a bowl and serve! ( and add that lil bit of bacon...turkey bacon cuts the fat, crumbled makes you use less and still get that salty sweet combo you crave!) ENJOY!-FoodieGIRL
