Roasting Vegetables

Roasting is a fantastic way to prepare your favorite vegetables and also an opportunity to concentrate their flavor in them. When preparing a roasted meat or poultry, add vegetables alongside the meat. The veggies will help add flavor to the finished roast and the vegetables will be flavored from the fat and juices of the meat. It’s also a good idea to cut your vegetables in uniform sizes, so they all cook to the same degree of doneness.
