Roasted Spring Vegetables

I’m serving my dog CESAR® home delightsâ„¢ as part of a sponsored series with Socialstars. #CesarHomeDelights

When we bring a pet into our home, it quickly becomes a part of the family. For better or worse, our dog has become like a fourth child. Quite a bit hairier, and a little bit stinkier, but definitely one of the kids. Some even say there’s some family resemblance. When they can see past the mop of hair that Yorkies have, anyway.

As a member of the family, we want to give our dogs the best, especially when it comes to what they eat. CESAR® Home Delightsâ„¢ borrows the recipes your family loves and makes them just for your dog, so you can feel good about what he’s eating.

In fact, Home Delightsâ„¢ is premium dog food that looks and smells like human food. And what dog doesn’t beg for human food?

So much so, that when I saw our dog would be eating CESAR® Home Delightsâ„¢ Pot Roast with Spring Vegetables, I had to make the same for the rest of us. To make it an easy weeknight meal, however, I took some help from the store when it came to the pot roast itself.

There’s no short cuts when it comes to fresh vegetables, though! A pan of diced new potatoes, baby carrots, and asparagus was roasted to sweet perfection in the oven.

The easy roasted spring vegetables recipe simply involves coating everything in extra virgin olive oil, adding kosher salt and dried parsley flakes, then roasting at 400 degrees until everything is nice and tender.

It’s how the whole family enjoys dinner together!

Then, to work off the meal and get some much needed exercise, we like to take a family walk to end our day. It’s a great way to spend some quality with my 4 kids.
