Vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, grain free, paleo, whole30… what/who am I forgetting? I think I’ve got everyone covered with this one.

Hey, you guys!! Happy Sunday! It’s sunny and bright and almost spring-like out there. Finally!

Last week, we were stuck in a very late winter freeze. The temps were in the single digits and we had a foot of snow. I like to think of March as the start of Spring, but March showed me otherwise…  Thus I decided to show her who is boss and made this very bright and healthy recipe for Spring Vegetables and Potatoes Baked in Parchment. Ain’t nobody gonna get in the away of me and my spring recipes.

Sidenote: I’m very sorry to be doing this to you on a Sunday. Making you eat healthy on the day that calories don’t count, however this is SO worth it! Trust. (Serve it with steak and problem solved)

BUT first >>> GUESS who is 2017’s Reynolds Ambassador?! Yep! THIS girl! 

I’m thinking they picked me since every other week I like to post a recipe for either foil-baked chicken, or foil-baked salmon, parchment-baked fish, and now these gorgeous veggies in parchment packs.

While I obviously love the recipes that I can make with the help of Reynolds, I’m also a bigger fan of the very easy, fuss-free, mess-free cooking thanks to their products.
Example: This Chicken and Rice Fajitas complete meal cooked inside Reynolds® Aluminum Foil. As well as this Salmon and Tomatoes en Papillote cooked inside Reynolds® Parchment Paper.

P.S. Did you know that they also have Reynolds® Slow Cooker Liners?!? Knowing my obsession with slow cooked dinners, I’mma have to get several of those, real soon.

Honestly, I’ve been craving these veggie packs for always and forever. They taste fantastic, the flavor is spot on, and the texture is perfect. No mushy business here. Just tender spring vegetables cooked to perfection.

We’re simply going to tuck our carrots, potatoes, asparagus, snap peas, and leek in Reynolds® Parchment Paper and toss them with a drizzle of olive oil, garlic, and a sprinkle of oregano. Next step is to wrap up the packets tightly and slip them into the oven for about 18-ish minutes.

Afterwards, you get to open up the packs to find flavorful, moist, and perfectly cooked veggies that NEED to be topped with a runny egg yolk. NEED. Please, don’t skip that step. The runny egg yolk adds an extra layer of flavor that shouldn’t be ignored.

Obvious step now is to eat it all up and then simply throw away the paper for cleanup. It just doesn’t get much better than that.

ENJOY!

    Hi, what is the purple vegetable in the parchment? I love how colourful this is and I wonder what other vegetables can be added? What variation is best to use?

    Thanks!

    I love cooking in parchment packs. Mostly because I’m lazy and hate cleaning up. These look so tasty Kate. I dig the egg on top, the runny yoke is sheer perfection.

    I just want to reach through my screen and take a bite! Looks incredible!
