As a catering company dedicated to using fresh ingredients and Georgia Grown produce, we love embracing the rich flavors of seasonal vegetables in our menus. The cooler months offer a bountiful selection of hearty, flavorful produce that not only delights the senses but also brings warmth to any gathering. From vibrant butternut squash to broccolini, winter vegetables are a staple in our dishes and have a well-deserved spotlight in our Winter Menu.

What do these delicious winter veggies bring to the table?

Butternut Squash is a winter favorite, offering a sweet, nutty flavor with a smooth, velvety texture. Its natural sweetness pairs wonderfully with savory herbs, making it perfect for roasting, soups, or even a delightful puree. Whether featured as a side dish or the main event, its rich color and taste make any plate pop.

Spaghetti Squash is another winter gem. When roasted, the flesh transforms into delicate, noodle-like strands that can be tossed with a variety of savory or sweet sauces. It’s a lighter alternative to traditional pasta, with a mild flavor that easily takes on the spices or seasonings it’s paired with, making it versatile for any dish.

Broccoli and Cauliflower are two cruciferous vegetables that offer a slightly bitter, earthy flavor with a satisfying crunch when roasted. Tossed with garlic, olive oil, or grated Parmesan, they create a comforting side dish or a main course when paired with grains or proteins.

Greens like Kale, Collards and Cabbage bring robust, earthy flavors to the table. Cabbage can be sautéed, braised, or even fermented into sauerkraut. Kale and collards, with their rich, peppery taste, can be cooked in soups or sautéed with garlic, offering a hearty, satisfying addition to any winter meal.

To enjoy these hearty additions, we created delicious new menu items. Our Italian Spinach Gnocchi combines hearty potato dumplings, sauteed butternut squash, cremini mushrooms, rainbow Swiss chard, and more in a Beurre Blanc sauce. Our Winter Vegetable Medley is a delicious symphony of butternut squash, grilled broccolini, fresh spinach, tomatoes, orzo and more. For a perfect, filling entreé, our Butternut Squash Ravioli will have you coming back for seconds if your stomach still has room! Made with diced pancetta, chopped broccolini, baby spinach, roasted red pepper cream sauce, and parmesan, it’s guaranteed to be a flavor-filled favorite at your next gathering.

Winter vegetables not only bring variety and richness to our plates but also offer nutrition and flavor that are perfect for any occasion. Embrace the season’s bounty with these vibrant ingredients in your next event or gathering.
