\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After my Christmas Party this year I ended up with leftovers from two generous Vegetable Platters.\u00a0 I love having washed pre-cut vegetables on hand.\u00a0 They’re a great snack, but you can only eat so many Celery and Carrot sticks with Ranch Dip.\u00a0 Since I had so many, I tried a few recipes.\u00a0\u00a0Before that I did eat\u00a0the Red, Yellow and (most) Green\u00a0Peppers, and there were no\u00a0Cucumbers\u00a0after the party —\u00a0I made a few dishes with the remaining\u00a0Cherry Tomatoes, Celery, Carrots, Broccoli,\u00a0Bell Peppers\u00a0and\u00a0Sugar Snap Peas.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>White Bean & Celery Soup <\/strong>– This may not look like much, but it’s good.\u00a0 The recipe (linked below) is a combination of Celery, Onion, Garlic, Cannellini Beans, Vegetable Stock and S & P.\u00a0 I substituted Chicken Stock and added some fresh squeezed Lemon Juice at the end, plus Scallions on top.\u00a0 It hit the spot after that.\u00a0 http:\/\/www.opensourcefood.com\/people\/netwalker\/recipes\/white-bean-and-celery-soup<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Creamy Vegetable Soup <\/strong>– I roasted Broccoli, Carrots,\u00a0Bell Peppers and Sugar\u00a0Snap Peas in the oven.\u00a0 After all were a little charred, I removed the vegetables from the oven and added hot Chicken Stock.\u00a0 I\u00a0mixed some Milk\u00a0with a little Cornstarch and poured it in, then brought all to a quick boil, simmered a bit and served this Soup within a short time.\u00a0 It was\u00a0easy and flavorful.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Baked C<\/strong>\"\"<\/strong><\/a>herry Tomatoes<\/strong> – I stumbled across this recipe (linked below) which seemed easy and a little different.\u00a0 I had all ingredients,\u00a0Cherry Tomatoes, Garlic, Chives, Lemon Juice, Olive Oil and S & P.\u00a0\u00a0I followed the recipe exactly, but\u00a0next time I might add less Lemon Juice, or add the Peel\/Rind instead.\u00a0 I’ve found that the Rind imparts a Lemon flavor without making a dish too tart.\u00a0 Or Lemon Juice added at the end is sometimes best.\u00a0 http:\/\/www.globalgourmet.com\/food\/egg\/egg0896\/cherryto.html<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Roasted Carrots <\/strong>– I\u00a0roasted Carrots in the oven with a little Olive Oil and Salt.\u00a0 I ate several, then\u00a0mashed the rest\u00a0and incorporated them into an easy\u00a0Carrot Souffle recipe.\u00a0 It didn’t turn out like I hoped, mostly because I didn’t have all ingredients.\u00a0\u00a0I tried to improvise, but the final was too dense, not fluffy and light how I want.<\/p>\n

Cafeteria Carrot Souffle<\/strong> – \"\"<\/a>Here’s the wannabe Souffle photo and\u00a0recipe (linked below).\u00a0 I mickey-moused this one, but\u00a0you might want\u00a0to give it a try.\u00a0 It has potential.\u00a0 After making all the above, I’m down to a small bag of Cherry Tomatoes, Carrots and Broccoli.\u00a0\u00a0Any suggestions?\u00a0\u00a0http:\/\/allrecipes.com\/Recipe\/Cafeteria-Carrot-Souffle\/Detail.aspx<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
