A Journey into Thought & Spirit

Roasted Mediterranean Vegetables

Winter time is the season where our bodies crave warmer foods and heartier vegetables. We are on the rise with the sun, gaining more light as the earth makes way to the spring solstice. 

So what better way to celebrate the sun than through the heart, soul and flavors of the Mediterranean. My soul has deep connections to the Mediterranean, and during my travels there, I never tasted such purity in the food. The freshness of the ingredients coupled with the methods of cooking is some of the best on the planet. I think it's safe to say that the Mediterranean attracts people due to its energy of the sun, land, ocean and food.

Chopped versus sliced vegetables affect the cooking time. Chopped vegetables requires a longer roasting time than sliced. Double the recipe if you want to make a bigger batch, and roast longer if you prefer chopped vegetables instead of sliced. I made a small batch because roasted vegetables taste best fresh. There is nothing wrong with leftovers, but double the recipe for larger parties of four or more. 

Enjoy!

Preparing and sharing meals with loved ones can foster social connections and emotional well-being. Additionally, a balanced diet contributes to physical health, providing the energy needed to fully engage in games and recreational activities.

I'm Angel Castor from the US. White Caucasian Female. I'm 43 years old and I got married at the age of 25, I have only two children and I am living happily.

Five years ago, my husband's behavior became so strange that I didn't really understand what was going on. He packed out of the house to another woman’s house and I love him so much that I
never dream of losing him, I tried my best to make sure that my husband got back to me but all to no avail, I cried and cried seeking help. I discussed it with my best friend Alison and she told me she can help me. She told me of a man called Dr. Odunga, she told me he is a very great man and a real man that can be trusted and there is nothing concerning love and Pregnancy issues he cannot solve and she told me how he has helped her and countless number of people in

restoring their relationship. I quickly contacted his email address at [email protected] I explained all my problems to him, he told me that I should not worry that all my problems will be fine. Presently, I am very happy I got my husband back to me with the help of Dr. Odunga and we are living happily with so much love for each other. What-app message/call him at +2348167159012 to help you
