Absolutely radicchio.

This salad will be absolutely radicchio.  Grilled radicchio, endive, carrots, olives, ideally goat cheese and orange slices.        Smokey tempeh, accompanied by a homemade fusion barbecue sauce. Planning to grill lots of hardy vegetables this summer. #girlswhogrill

Crispy Sheet Pan Broccoli with Parmesan – Blog Bonus! πŸ₯¦

Image
This simple, social media inspired broccoli flavor bomb crushed it. It’s dialed in.   Look for comparables, gotta check the comps, all over the internet. Crispy Sheet Pan Broccoli with ParmesanπŸ₯¦ Package of Broccoli Florettes Shredded Parmesan Trader Joe’s Italian Soffritto seasoning blend Olive Oil Microwave the broccoli florettes for about four and half minutes or boil until tender. Place them separated on a sheet pan covered with an oiled baking sheet or oiled tin foil.   Flatten each of the florettes with a masher or kitchen item of your choice.   Then, drag each of them in the oil to cover both sides of the florette. Cover each of the florettes with the Soffritto seasoning blend or spices of your choice. Sprinkle shredded parmesan liberally on each. Bake for about 40 minutes on 350 degrees but check after 30 minutes. The florettes should have the texture of crisps after they cool.  

First grill of the season.

The apocalyptic and bitter fire alarm in my apartment (a bug set it off once) is very grateful for the Weber Q1400 electric outdoor grill. Chicken, zuch rounds. The potato in foil is already baked but it’s on the grill to get some smokiness. Look at those grill marks. Next time, I’ll cross hatch.   You can simulate even more grill flavor with chips and packets, but I’ll stick to marinades. Vibed with the electric, but one day, I will get to light a gas grill. Offering the unusual to the grill gods this summer. Stay tuned. #girlswhogrill
