    I don't love it by itself, but it's pretty good mixed into other things. Might be good for left over turkey salad the next day?

    Where do you draw the line, KWIM?
    I am NOT going to cheat.

    Crockpot Cauliflower Fried Rice (posted the recipe in the crockpot thread)
    Roasted Radishes (my subsititute for red potatoes!)
    Roasted cauliflower

    Dessert: Going to try making LizRR's "sweet fauxtato pie" and use a QUEST bar as a crust - I saw a few recipes doing this on the QUEST site and I'm pretty sure I can make it work!

    I will very likely go over on my veggies for the day, but I'm not too worried about that - better to over-indulge on veggies than on stuff that would totally derail my progress!
    I am going to try the sweet fauxtato pie too. Is that the one made from rutabaga?

    yes! I could easily do a pudding packet for my dessert, but why not make an IP approved veggie based one to enjoy?

    I have been eating a lot of radishes which I never did in my life (and enjoying them on salads) but I have never roasted them....

    Thanks!
    I cut the radishes in half, toss in EVOO, and then season the same way I would roasted red potato - some onion powder, dried basil or tarragon, maybe garlic powder. Then just roast like any other veggie! They lose some of their peppery flavor in the roasting ,but i like them
