Lemon-Miso Baked Veggies

It could be any veggie you like, really, and when you make this baked veggies dish, it will never fail to  extract oohs and aahs from your visitors. Such a pleaser and yet, it is so easy to make. This is just like my other dishes, that are a snap to put together. Just remember to group the veggies together by softness and hardness.
For example, in one tray put together, carrots,  cauliflower, potatoes, yams.....and in another tray, the  bell peppers, mushrooms, zuchinnis, asparagus, eggplant etc...you get the point.

How to:
Assorted veggies washed and sliced, grouped together in pans according to hardness or softness. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake at 375 F or 180C  for 40 minutes.

Meantime while the veggies are  baking mix together juice of one large lemon, 2 tablespoons (or more) of miso, a tablespoon of olive oil. Brush the paste on the veggies 10 minutes before you take them out of the oven OR after you take the veggies out of the oven.

And if you have leftovers, you can dice 'em up and cook into your beef or chicken soup.

Enjoy!

Summer's long gone...and I miss it. The lazy days in shorts and cotton shirts...aahhhhh. Icy cold drinks  and beach chairs. Flipflops




Staring at space and drifting off to a dreamy nap. Colorful umbrellas that gives comfortably warm shades. Legs sprawled out and sand between toes.  The sound of  waves splashing at the shore.





A husband so nice and wonderful....always cool and at peace. The expanse of the beach and constantly blowing  salty breeze. Seven more months and I'll be with you again, Summer!
