Roast Fingerling Potatoes & Winter Veggies
Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs fingerling potatoes, whole or halved to maintain uniform size
- 1 head cauliflower, cut into individual florets (keep leaves!)
- ¼ lb (or so) braising mix, roughly chopped
- ½ leaves from cauliflower (put the rest in with your leftover braising mix, or use in soups, stir fry, roasted veggies, etc.)
- 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ – 1 leek, thinly sliced (ringwise)
- 2-3 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp paprika
- ½ Tbs dried, roasted red peppers
- 1 sprig chopped or 1 pinch/dash dried coriander
- 1 sprig chopped or 1 pinch/dash dried dill
- crumbled feta, to taste
- fresh ground pepper medley to taste
- sea salt to taste
Directions:
- Put all veggies and feta in small-med roasting pan or Dutch oven
- Add feta
- Drizzle generously with olive oil
- Add herbs & spices
- Toss well so everything is mixed and coated with oil and spices

| Ready to go in the oven. |
- Bake, uncovered in 350° oven for about an hour and a half to 2 hours, stirring/tossing gently every 40 minutes or so, to make sure everything roasts evenly
- It's done when potatoes & cauliflower are tender and golden browned, and greens are wilted and slightly crisped on the edges.
- Enjoy!
Done! Mmmmmm. Makes 6 servings (Though you'll probably want to double it – or more – for more than three people)
Notes:
- If veggies are browning faster than getting tender, cover with foil or roaster lid until tender, then finish under broiler for a few minutes for any final browning.
- This dish goes GREAT with roast beef!
- Add some chicken breast or medium-firm tofu to the mix to turn this into a one dish meal
- Omit cheese, for a completely vegan dish, or substitute/add parmesan, goat or sheep cheese, etc to change it up a bit
- Remember; Anything that you can roast in the oven, you can roast in the grill or fire!!
