French Vegetable Recipes

It is easy to love vegetable recipes when prepared in the French way. Such an important part of the diet should be simple and quick whenever possible, so we are not tempted to skip it! Serve them as a main dish as Vegetable Tian, or as a side dish like one of these three tasty ways to serve Parsnips, or brighten up your plates with French Provençal Tomatoes.

There are famous traditional vegetable dishes that have passed the test of time, like Ratatouille and Aubergines au Gratin. The recipes here will keep the natural color and beauty of the vegetables and their delightful flavor. Enjoy them all!

This Website is AMAZING! I was raised by my stepmother, who was born in France and grew up eating this food! Every Sunday, we would go to her mother's house and eat. I have been trying to recreate these recipes on my own and have failed miserably. THANK YOU for having these recipes for use! They are FANTASTIC!
