Roasted Radishes!
I have been at my family reunion this weekend and didn’t do much cooking. I had a blast and ignored all technology for about 3 days.
What I did cook that was very different last week were roasted radishes. Have you ever roasted a radish? I have eaten many radishes in my life on salads or with dip but I have never cooked them. My daughter sent some to me last week that her husband grew in the garden and told me that I should try roasting them for a new taste treat. So I did…..and just like all my other roasted veggies. But just in case you haven’t read those recipes, let me tell you how to roast a radish.
ROASTED RADISHES
2 1/2 cups chopped radishes
1/2 onion, chopped
6 garlic pods
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp Mrs. Dash (Original Flavor)
Pepper to taste
Toss all the ingredients together and roast at 400 for 20 minutes.
I think you will be pleased with the taste change of a roasted radish. Sometimes the raw ones are a little bitter to me but these were delicious, though rich. They were also quite pretty.
Hi, my name is Susan and Permanent Posies (Creative Chaos) is my blog and my subject matter is…well, that depends on the day and the mood. But, for the most part, I love cooking, watching the Food Network, reading cookbooks and, of course, eating. I am also an artist and spend time each week in my studio (bedroom) oil painting. I am a mother of four and a grandmother to 5 and that, along with my husband and 2 dogs, take up my most of my time. I am a side-tracked Home Executive and I had the privilege of being a stay –at-home mom so, you might say that my passion is the home and making a haven for those I love.

I have taken to full sized cooking on the weekends. I am not doing freezer cooking rather I will pop a full roast, a couple of full chickens, or maybe a turkey , or a ham into the oven then I am off to clean or do other necessary chores for a few hours while they cook. I server our meal out of it the first night then I pack it up and take it to my Mom’s she turns it into easy meals for me for the rest of the week Turkey pot pie, turkey chili , we have turkey and club sandwiches at her home and she even made me a turkey alfredo casserole! That was last week this week we have three roasted chickens bought on manager special $8.27 minus $2.00 off coupons. I did the main cooking she does all the rest of the work this works out great as she is home during the day and watches our children and I am available on the weekends to cook the main large item it helps us both with our grocery budget and I feel like it is less work for each of us (although Mom might not think so !) I love you Mom.
