Roasted Salmon with Brussels Sprouts

This recipe also comes from PBS Everyday Food. I have to admit I've never been a fan of brussel sprouts but this recipe actually results in a somewhat tasty surprise.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss brussels sprouts with olive oil. Season with ½ teaspoon coarse salt and ¼ teaspoon ground pepper. Spread in a single layer. Roast, tossing occasionally, until sprouts are browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Place in center of baking sheet (push sprouts to sides). Roast until salmon is opaque throughout and sprouts are tender, about 10 minutes.

ingredients
1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons olive oil
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 skinless salmon fillets, (about 1½ pounds)

Roasted Fall Vegetable and Ricotta Pizza

This is a really unique recipe and quite easy to prepare. I first saw this on PBS Everyday Food Recipes.

Roasted Fall Vegetable and Ricotta Pizza
Serves 4 | Prep time: 25 minutes | Total time: 50 minutes


Preheat oven to 475°. Brush a large baking sheet (preferably rimless) with oil, or line with parchment paper, if desired, for easy cleanup.
On a lightly floured surface, roll and stretch dough into a 12-by-16-inch oval (or as large as will fit on baking sheet); transfer to sheet.
Sprinkle dough with half the mozzarella. Scatter vegetables on top, and dollop with ricotta; sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and, if using, rosemary. Drizzle with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Bake until bubbling and golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Divide vegetables and garlic between two rimmed baking sheets (or line with parchment paper, if desired, for easy cleanup); dividing evenly, toss with oil, 2 teaspoons coarse salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
Roast until vegetables are tender and beginning to brown, 40 to 50 minutes, tossing them and rotating sheets from top to bottom halfway through. Serve hot or at room temperature. (To store: Let cool, place in an airtight container, and refrigerate up to 3 days. Pour off any accumulated liquid before using.)
