Directions
Roasted Veg With Caribbean Dressing,It’s roasted veg livened up with some Caribbean flavours. You choose which veg you prefer, and whether or not you like to preboil. Suggestions for veg include regular potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, eggplant, turnips, onions and all sorts of squash. If you prefer to, you can parboil the harder longer cooking veggies (such as carrots) briefly before roasting them all together. It cuts down on the baking time. Instructions are outlined for both methods. Enjoy! Update: After NorthwestGal’s review I realized I omitted the baking temperature, which is included now. Note that if you’re using hard veg like carrots, they take quite some time unless you preboil (about 1 hr 15 total).,What an interesting combination of ingredients. used carrots, potatoes, asparagus, zucchini and onion. I boiled the carrots and potatoes until almost done, then tossed all the vegetables with the dressing. I thought because of the cinnamon and cloves my husband wouldn’t care for it and I, too, was wondering. Dave kept forking the vegetables from the bake sheet even after he ate his plate serving. He really liked it. used 5 jalapeno slices, seeds and all. For us, it was just enough — had a little bite to it. I will definately make this again. Want to try it on friends and family to see if they can tell what are the secret ingredients. Thanks for the recipe. Made for Veggie Swap 22. Toni,I enjoyed the Caribbean Dressing, but I had a bit of trouble with my vegetables. used potato wedges and sliced carrots for this recipe. But there was no indication regarding what temperature to roast the vegetables, so I guessed. I first roasted the vegetables for 45 minutes at 350, but the carrots were still quite uncooked, so I increased the temp to 400 and returned the dish to the oven for 15 more minutes. By this time, our grilled chicken had already been done for about 15 minutes, so we just went ahead at delved right in. The potatoes were done to perfection but the carrots were still not quite soft enough for our preference. But the Caribbean Dressing was positively tasty and is what makes this dish so delicious and memorable. DH didn’t really care much for the cloves, though I think it’s one of the things that contributes so well to the overall taste sensation of this dish. I will DEFINITELY make tthis dish again but will use vegetables that don’t take as much time to roast. Thanks for sharing your recipe! Made for ZWT5.
