Summer Vegetables in Parchment Paper image

Parchment paper is a great way to use less fat in cooking and still end up with a tasty dish. Notice that you are cutting each piece of the parchment paper into a heart shape. Other vegetables that I think you could use: chayote, mushrooms, asparagus, or spinach. After looking at some other veggie parchment recipes, I think 375 degrees for 20 minutes might work too. Maybe you are like me--- love oven meals so that is why I am putting the oven/time variation here. If you do not have parchment paper use foil, but parchment is prettier. :)
