Instructions

Instructions are for 6 servings. Please modify as needed.

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (225°C). Rinse and trim the vegetables. Place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  2. Drizzle olive oil on top; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the chopped sage and place in the oven for about 20 minutes until the vegetables are roasted.
  3. In the meantime, boil the eggs for 10 minutes so they are hard boiled. Quickly place them in cold water when done so they are easier to peel.
  4. Remove the shell and chop the eggs into small pieces.
  5. Brown the butter over medium heat until it has a deep amber color and a nutty smell. It should only brown, not burn, so pay close attention.
  6. Place the roasted vegetables on a serving platter and decorate with the chopped eggs. Finish by drizzling the browned butter over the eggs and veggies.

Tip!

For roasting asparagus, the thicker the better!

    How do we know how to weigh the portion sizes?

    The recipe as written makes 6 servings, so divide into 6 equal portions.
