Balsamic Roasted Vegetables
Another month has passed and it’s time for another round of The Secret Recipe Club. I’m taking a break from posting pink food for just one day to bring you this awesome fall vegetable dish. For those of you who don’t know about Secret Recipe Club, you sign up to participate, then are assigned another blog. Then, everyone posts on the same day revealing the blog they were assigned.
This month, my blog assignment was A Vegan Obsession. I have to admit that I was a bit worried that I wouldn’t be able to find anything I would want to make… But sure enough, as I started reading through the recipes, I was starring quite a few of them.
I chose this Balsamic Roasted Vegetable dish because I had quite a few veggies laying around from our last CSA box. I love how customizable this recipe could be. You can literally use almost any vegetables that you have on hand. All of the veggies that I used were from our CSA.
Hubby and I devoured these vegetables. We absolutely loved them and have made them a couple times this month already.

I am sending this to my friend Julie. She is always trying to come up with ways to get her hubby to eat veggies. Genius!
Yea, I’m glad my hubby eats veggies. I’m sure that if I had used the right chocolate these would have been awesome. They were just okay due to the unsweetened chocolate…
When I tried these last year I was so disappointed. Yours look much better. I think your “bumping up” helped to create a better product. Well done.
