Roasted Vegetables With Chipotle Cream Recipes

Steps:

• For the roasted vegetables: Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a heavy baking sheet with vegetable oil cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl, toss together the butternut squash, zucchini, bell peppers, kidney beans, oil, cumin, oregano and salt. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast until the vegetables are golden and tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Split the pita breads in half horizontally to make 4 rounds. Arrange in a single layer on a heavy baking sheet. Bake until crisp, 7 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For the chipotle cream: In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, lime juice, agave and chipotle pepper until smooth.
• Spoon the vegetable mixture on top of the crispy pitas and serve with a dollop of the chipotle cream.

Steps:

• Brush the zucchini lightly with canola oil and sprinkle both sides with adobe seasoning. Light a grill to medium heat and grill the vegetables until soft and charred in spots. Remove from heat, allow to cool and chop into bite-sized pieces.
• Heat a little oil in a sauce pan set over medium-low heat. Add the black beans and 2 cups of water. Cover and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring and mashing the beans a bit.
• Turn off the heat, stir in the spinach and the roasted vegetables and season well with salt and pepper.
• To serve, spread the spinach leaves on a serving plate. Heap the beans in the center. Stir the sour cream and chipotle together, and drizzle over the beans. Top with the cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray.
• Combine sweet potato and carrots in the prepared pan. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup parsley and 1 teaspoon chipotle pepper powder.
• Cook in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Add bell pepper and remaining parsley and cook until vegetables are cooked through but slightly crunchy, about 10 minutes more.
• Remove from the oven and add salt and more chipotle powder to taste.
