Potato Cauliflower Bake

 

I test made this tonight (I cook for a mom and a very fussy child who

pretty much only likes " white food " ) and it came out really nicely. I

would add some spices to punch up the flavor, but for a kid (or the

picky eaters in all our families!) it's great as is.

 

1 med white potato, cut into bite-sized chunks

2 cups cauliflower, cut into bite-sized chunks

1 med red bell pepper, cut into bite-sized chunks

1/2 small white or Spanish onion, sliced VERY thin

1 Tbsp EVOO

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

2 Tbsp skim or reduced-fat milk (didn't try soy, but don't see why not)

1/4 cup Parmesan cheese

2 Tbsp minced fresh parsley for garnish

 

Preheat oven to 400degrees. Toss veggies and potatoes with oil and

seasonings. Layer in 9-inch baking pan. Drizzle milk evenly over the

top and sprinkle with cheese. Cover tightly with foil. Bake 40

minutes or until tender.

 

The recipe says this serves 6, but I think its more like 3 adults.

But, hey, I've got a crazy metabolism....

EVOO = Extra Virgin Olive Oil

But I bet any kind of olive oil would work.

 

I don't know about others, but I had to acquire my

taste for EVOO. I remember when I was first starting

out on my own and learning how to cook in the 80s,

and I had made some homemade calzones from the

recipe in the Enchanted Brocolli Forest cookbook,

and I did NOT like them due to being able to taste

so strongly the flavor of the olive oil. Now I love the

stuff! Funny to think back to those days and how our

tastebuds mature and can be taught to like new healthy

foods.
