You did fine. But how about brussels sprouts? Spinach salad?

Or how about roasted green beans? Store-bought green beans are picked
too small and have little taste. My brother figured out to toss them
with just a little oil and salt, and to roast them in the oven to
concentrate the flavor. They shrink at least 50%, and they are really
good. (I need to get the details from him)
