I have done this with carrots and red potatoes. Add any spices you'd like. Rosemary and thyme together with a little salt an pepper is delicious.

Cook on a cookie sheet with a rim. Might be 15 to 40 minutes depending on what they are and how big the pieces are. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Regina Marie via Cookinginthedark Sent: Tuesday, August 4, 2020 2:22 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Regina Marie <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [CnD] Vegetables in the oven Hi Drew. I take the vegetable of my choice, put either vegetable or chicken broth enough to cover, spice it accordingly (you can use the spices you would normally add like Mrs. Dash, ginger, allspice, different kinds of peppers, garlic, onion, etc.) Then put in the oven at 375, uncovered, and cook about 20-30 minutes depending how you like them. This work with carrots, fresh geeen beans, squash, greens, kale, broccoli, cauliflower and cominations of those. You can also assemble the ingreadients and put stirfry vegetable in an oven or toaster oven. Stir them every 5 minutes. I cook them at 450 dgs and they don't take long. Make sure to add more liquid if necessary.

You just use half sheet pans, also known as cookie sheets with sides. A very few of the recipes require you to cook other things on the stovetop, but most don't. It's one of my favorite BARD cookbooks, and that's saying something. But right now, it's just too hot to heat up the oven like that. So I'm going to try smaller batches of the veggies in the new air fryer toaster oven that we just bought. We don't know if we are going to keep it. We might have bought a bad one. Anyway, potatoes are first. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Immigrant via Cookinginthedark Sent: Monday, August 3, 2020 7:48 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Immigrant <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [CnD] Preferred cooking methods A number of vegetables I prefer raw, with the exception of potatoes and a few others. With pasta, I usually cook regular spaghetti, not a microwavable product. I make a single serve recipe of macaroni and cheese in the microwave, or sometimes I cook the same single serving of spaghetti for a pasta salad. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Nicole Massey via Cookinginthedark Sent: Monday, August 3, 2020 5:25 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Nicole Massey <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [CnD] Preferred cooking methods Stove top is simple if you practice. And practice with the stove off at first. It's all a question of position awareness. Higher rim pots also help a lot. I just bought 5 pounds of frozen catfish fillets that I'll thaw (in small batches, of course) then bread and fry. I'll use my wok pan to do that. Boiling is useful for pasta. (I don't like microwaved noodles or other pasta products as much) I could probably think of a couple of other things, though for vegetables I prefer the steamer. (which is in a medium sized pot on the stove) If you have a reliable timer steaming is safe, and you can set your time so the veggies are still crisp.
