Lisa Wilson: Hi, I’m Lisa Wilson with Nourished. I love eating for the season. So today, I’m going to show you how to make root vegetables. We are going to make all five of these dishes here. Where should I start? Okay, the roasted root vegetables. This is vegetable medley. We have turnips and parsnips, we have carrots, yams, sweet potatoes, and we also have a little bit of squash in here. We have cut them in to bite-size pieces. We will go through more of that later. It is a delicious snack to enjoy any time.
We also have our lamb stew. This is something that’s quick and easy. You can put it in the crock pot the night before. Just plug it in the morning, come home and have something delicious, filling your whole house with this amazing aroma, when you get home.
Then of course, the carrot soup, which is always nice to have. It’s great as an entrée or great as an appetizer. Carrot soup is always ahead in our house, especially when we have guests over. I really love carrot soup.
And then of course, the pretty salad. And this is all seasonal, everything on the plate is seasonal. You have pears on the bottom; which you can use a nice apple on the bottom as well. Of course, roasted beet on top, with a little bit of beet tops on top of that, sprinkled with some pumpkin seeds. It’s a beautiful salad as you can see, and then finally, what do you do with those beet tops? Well of course, you enjoy them, and you eat them because they are delicious. So, we have gone ahead and we have sautéed up some beet tops, taught you how to spice those up, and really enjoy the whole part of the beet.
Equipment you will need today will be a mini food processor, a large food processor, a large mixing bowl, a few knives. Of course, the cutting board, a baking sheet with a little bit of parchment paper, and that’s about it. Besides your root vegetables. So, once you got that organized, you are ready to start. Always when we are working in the kitchen, we are concerned about safety. So, be careful especially if you are working in the kitchen with children, around the knives and the hot ovens.
Before we start all that, let me tell you a little bit about myself. I’m Lisa Wilson, I’m a Certified Health Nutrition and Wellness Counselor. I help busy families incorporate healthy food into their lives on a daily basis. I hope to make it fun and simple and easy. So, join us today having fun in the kitchen, grab a cup of tea, put on a sweater, and let’s get started with some root vegetables.
