Aloha Friday: Roast It
Yesterday, I wrote about roasting sweet potatoes, zucchini, yellow squash and red peppers. As the day progressed, I began to think about going through the grocery store to buy different vegetables to roast. I also began thinking about roasting fruit.
My Aloha Friday question for this week is: Have you ever oven roasted fruits or vegetables? If so, what fruits or veggies have you roasted?
Thanks to Kailani at An Island Life for starting this fun for Friday. Please be sure to head over to her blog to say hello and sign the MckLinky there if you are participating.

I love roasted veggies! We like to roast potatoes and onions with a little butter, salt and pepper whenever we grill out. I’ve also roasted them in the oven and it comes out just as delicious! (Can you tell I live in the south? We have to put butter and salt on just about anything! lol) Roasted zucchini and yellow squash is also a good combo. Yummy!

I have not myself but when I was visiting El Salvador last year I went to a Brazilian Steak House and they grilled pineapple, it was amazing!

We have roasted all sorts of veggies – will be doing brussel sprouts that way for the first time tonight.
Have you tried grilling veggies and fruits? Grilling pineapple makes it taste a little sweeter – YUM! (Worth braving my mild allergy for, too!)

Well I do roast Pineapple and Carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, squash and onions. I love the sweetest of Roasted vegetables. A little olive oil and seasoning in into a 450F oven for about 30 minutes and great flavors come out.

I have oven roasted the little red potatoes but that’s it. We do a lot of steamed veggies – broccoli, cauliflower, carrots.

I have prepared roast and veggies but never roasted veggies or fruits alone may be something I may want to look into
So far I haven’t done any roasting, but I think I’m going to have to try it.

Do tomatoes count?
Have a great Friday!

I’ve had ready meals with ingrediants described as over roasted, mainly peppers I think?

LOVE roasted potatoes…my mother makes the best
I love roasting root veggies.
@Roxanne D.
I mainly stick to EVOO instead of butter to keep things as healthy as possible. For some vegetables, I don’t even add the EVOO because their natural flavor when roasted is so good without any added oils/fats.
@Harriet
Yes, tomatoes count. I might try those also if I do a “grab anything that looks good in the produce aisle” roasting session. Perhaps I’ll slice them and stick them under the broiler for a few minutes.
@Kari
That just reminded me that I have a bag of carrots that I was going to roast. Maybe I’ll do that tonight with portobello mushrooms, zucchini, yellow squash and red peppers!
roasted carrots are yummy!
I haven’t but I once had the most delicious grilled romaine salad at Brennan’s Restaurant in Downtown Disney.
