Marvelously Mauve and Black
Several folks told me how good roasted parsnips are, so I decided to try them.
I drizzled a little olive oil in a baking dish, chopped up the parsnips, sprinkled some dried garlic, thyme, rosemary, and savory over the top. I cooked them in a 400 F oven for about half an hour. There weren't any leftover, not even one.
A pair of these high fired, white stoneware bowls are in my Etsy shop. The kiln gods were extremely happy and offered up this wonderful mauve color emphasizing the Victorian lace pattern.
For your viewing pleasure I created this Marvelously Mauve and Black Etsy treasury. For those of you unfamiliar with treasuries, the idea is to put together something beautiful, diverse, with a theme, and not to use your own art. There are several artists in this group I am happy I discovered, check it out.

those look tasty Linda!
ReplyDeleteI like them but Mark not a fan...
Roasting veggies really puts them in another catagory. Have you tried sweet pototoes and cauliflower is also good?
ReplyDeleteRoasted fennel is amazing, roasted radishes are so good I know people who don't like radishes but love them roasted.
ReplyDeleteI just found this on another blog I follow:

Hi Linda,
ReplyDeleteI love roasted vegetables. It is the only way I will eat asparagus. So now I have to try parsnips. My favorite is roasted broccoli.
