Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Shallots

I love Brussels Sprouts!

Original recipe by Eating Well

Shallots are pretty good too.

As I said, I love Brussels Sprouts. I also love alliums, and I love roasting vegetables. I make this recipe all the time. My only modifications: I don't leave the root ends on the shallots.
I somehow always end up with larger shallots, so I like to cut them into bite size pieces before roasting. Sometimes, I use a fancy flavored salt, but really, this is a perfect recipe.

It freezes well too!

Notes from Cooper: I don't hate Brussels sprouts, but this would be better if you ditched the small purple poison apples and added lots of bacon.

Sesame Maple Roasted Tofu

Original Recipe by Eating Well This is the second time I've made this recipe. The first time I made it, I was shocked that I had never roasted tofu before. It was so good, and hit the sweet and savory notes I love so much. This week, the modification was adding cubed eggplant to the first roasting. More veggies and more servings! Notes from Cooper: when Mama was making stupid tofu, Auntie Casey was cooking ground chicken. Just sayin'

Szechuan Tofu with Cauliflower

Before I started my fitness journey, I loved Chinese takeout. Truth be told, I still do, I just rarely indulge now. This recipe satisfies the craving and is fun to make! Original recipe by Cooking Light As always, I start by pressing the tofu. While that is happening, I prep all the veggies and prepare the sauce. The cooking comes together quickly. The result was spicy, satisfying and healthy. I ended up freezing the portions. The freezing actually seemed to give more texture to the tofu and deepened the flavors. I'll make it again! Notes from Cooper: Mama calls this "szechuan" tofu. I think she's pronouncing "stupid" incorrectly.

Stir Fried Broccolini

Broccolini, AKA baby broccoli is a favorite of mine. original recipe by Cooking Light I was pretty excited for the flavors in this recipe. Sesame, fish sauce, chili, lime... It also was a recipe that came together quickly. I have to admit though, I was a little disappointed in the end result. I didn't dislike it, I just wish that the flavors were bolder. Notes from Cooper: yeah, see? Vegetables are boring!
