Today we’re adhering to the dietary restriction of our choosing, so I’m going with something I’ve encountered a few times: no onions! This is a simple pile of roasted veggies – Brussels sprouts, red potatoes, corn on the cob, chickpeas – with quickie tzatziki (Kite Hill Greek yogurt + shredded cucumber + lemon juice) and a sauce that’s new to me: zhoug. We saw it at trader Joe’s, but this is homemade. It’s pretty simple! Cilantro, garlic, jalapeno, cumin, cardamom, olive oil. Delish.
Some folks I’ve met who eschew onions also don’t go for *any* alliums, including garlic, which would make the zhoug a no-go, but surely an alternative could be found…
