Simple and delicious, Cabbage Stir-Fry is easy to prepare, packed with vitamins k and c, and budget friendly!  When stir-fried the cabbage caramelizes, transforming from slightly bitter and crunchy to lightly sweet and tender.  The use of sesame oil, ginger and soy sauce adds an Asian inspired nuance to this recipe, elevating the cabbage from ordinary to extraordinary.  To make a meal of it, simply add any protein and serve with brown rice.

Roasted Butternut Soup

2023-11-02T09:19:35-04:00November 17th, 2022|calendar2023, Cooking With VT Fresh|

In my kitchen, when the weather turns cold, the oven turns on!  Roasting vegetables to make soup is a favorite of mine.   Roasting is an easy technique that enhances the flavor of vegetables by caramelizing the natural sugars, resulting in a deeper more intense flavor. Roasted Butternut Soup is great when topped with croutons, a splash of cream, or toasted nuts/seeds.  This soup is great with sandwiches, as a meal starter or a light snack.
