    Herb Roasted Vegetables


    Herb-Roasted Vegetables

    3 large carrots, bias-sliced into
    3/4-inch pieces (or use 2 cups packaged, peeled baby carrots).
    2 medium red potatoes, quartered (about 12 ounces total)
    2 small onions, cut into wedges
    2 tablespoons olive oil (or cooking oil)
    1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (or red wine vinegar)
    1 teaspoon garlic salt
    1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
    1/4 teaspoon pepper

    Step 1: Place vegetables in a 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
    Step 2: In a small bowl combine oil, vinegar, garlic salt, rosemary and pepper;
    pour over vegetables, tossing to coat.
    Step 3: Bake, uncovered, in a 400° oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until vegetables
    are tender, stirring occasionally. Makes 4 servings.

    Here are a few suggestions for using and storing herbs, as well as a list of herb
    substitutes.

    Add dried herbs toward the beginning of the cooking time, and add fresh
    herbs toward the end.

    When using leaf herbs (basil, thyme), crush them between your fingers or
    with a mortar and pestle before adding.

    Store herbs and spices in airtight containers away from light, heat and
    moisture (not near the stove!).

    Replace herbs when they lose their color and aroma, or at least once a year.

    When substituting, start with about half the amount called for and add more
    to taste.
