All of my favorite things in one dish! If raw zucchini isn't your thing, I suggest a quick, hot saute with a small splash of olive oil. Either way — delish!

Moroccan-spiced roasted mushrooms

I’m always on the hunt for new ways to prepare mushrooms, and this multi-faceted Moroccan spice blend was a nice experiment. I loved the warm, nutty flavors paired with the bits of fresh cilantro.

Roasted sweet potatoes with chickpeas, dried cranberries and pesto

I love all of the opportunity a plain roasted sweet potato presents. The addition of pesto, dried cranberries, toasted walnuts, quinoa and chickpeas make it magical.
