Continuing Adventures In Farm Shares

We once again have a working oven so the farm share adventures continue. This week we got cabbage, brussels sprouts, broccoli, more beets, naval oranges, fuji apples, collard greens and an eggplant as well as two lemons.

We repeated the earlier cabbage and chorizo recipe the first night as well as roasted the broccoli.

Roasted Broccoli
Chop up a head of broccoli
Toss it in a little bit of olive oil, salt and pepper
Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

It is an easy and straight forward recipe that seems to work well with a lot of vegetables.

The brussels sprouts were brand new to me. I have never had brussels sprouts before so I went with something that would provide extra flavors if the brussels sprouts proved too bitter.

We did not have Parmesan so we used Romano cheese which made it a little sharper. We quartered the brussels sprouts and I think we would cut them smaller in the future. Over all not a bad side.

Here is the recipe I used; just remember to cut the bitter ends of the sprout first.
