Roasted Veggie Green Chili

I know I have gone on and on about roasting veggies but just indulge me one more time… This roasted veggie green chili is going to blow your mind.

When you roast vegetables you add so much flavor with such little work. Veggies. Olive oil. A little salt. Done.

I first had green chili while cooking with my friend out in Yampa, Colorado. Neither of us loved skiing but we both loved cooking so we would go up to her tiny little house in the cutest little town and we would cook, read, and crochet surrounded by foot upon foot of gorgeous snow. How lucky was I to find a best friend like that?

In my limited experience with chili, it was made with ground beef, beans, and tomatoes. Easy peasy. Done. I had never heard of a chili made with pork. Green chili? You must be kidding. I also thought that green chili was green. It’s not.

This green chili was so easy! It can definitely be a weeknight dinner option for your family.

I am also kind of obsessed with schug right now – it’s kind of a middle eastern cilantro sauce. Wowzer. It’s good. I think I might start putting it on everything.
