I hope you had a wonderful day yesterday, wherever you are! It was a beautiful Easter Sunday in Colorado complete with a 2 week old lamb at our sunrise service.
So, today I want to introduce you to a new vegetable; the sunchoke, also known as the Jerusalem artichoke. I saw this strange looking package last weekend at the grocery store and thought I’d give it a whirl. I hate to say, they sat in my fridge for a week, but wow. What a cool flavor. They are a member of the sunflower family and taste similar to sunflower seeds; mixed with a potato type texture. Really good roasted and I mixed them with roasted cauliflower for our Easter side dish. Soooo good! The other cool thing is that despite how they look, they have relatively no starch, so that’s a good thing.
Have a wonderful first day of April!

I love love love sun chokes! I snack on them raw, chop them up and mix into green salads too. Not thought about roasting – what a good idea!
Good to know-thanks for sharing!
I have never been brave enough to try them, I will get some next time they are available and roast. I’m such a two year old when it comes to new things!
Yes, they are really good!
Awesome!
very interesting. We will look for them at the store. They really look like ginger
