Roasted Summer Squash Recipe
I love making recipes like this because when people try them, they can’t believe that vegetables can taste so good.
Making veggies is a bit of a pain, I know. That’s why I make them just twice a week, but I make a bunch that way it lasts me all week.
Remember, that eating veggies in not only full of vitamins and nutrients but it also helps you BURN CALORIES.
So eat up those veggies my friend!
