Sweet Treats
by Linda Dansbury

Fall is baking season, roasting season, soup season and stew season! I have also continued to make stir fries. Here are a few specific things I have recently enjoyed.

Beets - made the Chocolate Beet Cake recipe on this site. Nothing to say but Yummy!

Broccoli, cauliflower - these are so beautiful! I love snacking on them raw, but I also roasted them. Cut both up into similar sizes. Tossed in olive oil, salt and pepper. Roasted at 375 until tender, about 25 min. Topped with chopped herbs and a grating of parm cheese.

Eggplant, peppers, onion, tomato (added near the end), broccoli - I recently learned about a sauce called tonkatsu. It is a slightly sweet and sour sauce that is delicious when added to stir fried veggies. I also stir fried a little bit of steak and added ramen noodles. It was really good and I will be making it again.
