The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

The recipe is a little vague - and in a way that's ok. I found the cooking time to be a little difficult because the veggies have very different textures/densities and cook at different rates. The carrots were too crisp-tender for my liking and the squash and asparagus were over cooked. I'd maybe partially cook the carrots ahead of time next time. I did like the balsamic-seasoning mixture and not having precise measurements meant I got to experiment a bit with the vinegar to oil ratio. Overall, a good recipe.
