Roasted Vegatables.

We really like the flavor of these roasted vegetables.  It helped that I pointed out that they taste like french fries.  Last time I used baby onions, stems and all.  They fried up toasty and crisp and are pretty tasty.  This time I tried including the stems of a leak and they turned out yummy too.  Lydia loves to pick the "french fried onion stems" out of the whole pan.

This time we used 2 potatoes, small zucchini, small crookneck, some sort of lemon-shaped yellow squash, a little cauliflour, a yellow onion, and a small leak.  I cut the vegatables a little smaller than last time (about 1 1/2 inch cubes) and they cooked up just right (according to Nathan, anyway.)  I also added 3/4 lb browned hamburger to the vegatables when they were half done cooking.  I'm sure I could have added it at the beginning, but I didn't have it browned yet at that time.  That turned out good too.
