Live Granola: Oven Baked Veggies

What's this blog about?

First of all - granola what?! Granola is a term used to describe 'modern day hippie'. I love being a "granola"! I first heard the term when my little sister and her friends would whisper it behind my back, using it to describe why I was the way I was. Now, I embrace the term!

This blog will focus on all us hippie-at-heart woman who blend in with the rest of the work force 9-5. By day you will find us in our blazers and high heels in our office usually on conference calls or attending meetings; after work we are either trying to find the best deal on organic laundry detergent or whipping up our own detergent in the kitchen. I work full time and attend school part time, and my husband usually puts in 70 hours a week at work; therefore I solely run the household. I take care of the finances, cooking, cleaning, laundry - all while trying to find the most cost-effective and less-harmful-to-the-environment way to accomplish it all!

I write about budgeting, DIY crafts, organizing, cooking, and fashion.

I hope to bring out the inner hippie in all of you! As always, share me tweet me pin me!

Until next time,
Polly

Oven Baked Veggies

Ok so this isn't so much of a recipe as it is a delicious idea!! I've been trying to eat clean more often so tonight I made a big batch of oven baked veggies to eat with my quinoa loaf.

I used - potatoes, asparagus, broccoli, carrots, kale, and fresh parsley. I used a light amount of olive oil and seasoned with real salt, pepper, and dry thyme. I baked the dish at 425F for 25-30 min.

This is now one of my go-to quick dishes so I can get in my veggie servings on those nights I'm not in a salad mood.
