VEGAN HERB BUTTER AND ROASTED BROCCOLINI

FacebookTweetPinLinkedInPrint

Vegan herb butter with roasted broccoliniVegan herb butter and roasted broccolini is my latest food obsession. Or actually broccolini and fioretto, the cute flowering cauliflower. I love to roast these delicate vegetables in the oven and eat them with herby butter. A delicious, wholesome and very green summer food ♥ Jos haluat lukea postauksen suomeksi, klikkaa tästä.

My version of herb butter contains unrefined oils and good fat: cold pressed Extra virgin coconut oil and olive oil and also avocado, which gives it a beautiful creamy consistency. These three ingredients combined + herbs and spices make a flavorful creamy herby spread, which I like to call butter. I keep this butter in the freezer and take out a bite or two when I need.

Vegan herb butter with roasted broccoliniSo do you need this butter in your life? Yes I seriously think you do as it’s so unbelievably versatile, and it is very delicious. I recommend trying various ways of using it:

♥ On top of roasted veggies (any veggies work but I absolutely love broccolini and fioretto 🙂 )

♥ For a summer BBQ

♥ On toast

♥ As “pesto” in pasta

♥ With cooked potatoes or mashed into a herby potato mash

♥ To make a sauce: just add plant-based milk or cream of choice and blend until smooth

Because I love cilantro, that’s what I used for the herby green flavor, but you can use any fresh herb you like – basil, parsley, thyme, or a mix of herbs.

Happy summer cooking!

Love,

Tiina
