Same here, rotisserie (mine is a vertical unit).

I'm actully experiementing with it right now. I've seen many lovely
'roasted veggie' recipes. My vertisserie has a cage for seafoods and a
spike arrangement. For fun, we lightly olive oiled some baby bok choy
and stuffed that thickly in the cage with the spike thing under it and
put small pieces of red potatoes (rolled in olive oil and some sea
salt) with 2inch cuts of carrots between them. The carrots were rolled
in the same olive oil then dusted with cinnimon.

My mini-crockpot is finishing up some eddo (small japanese taro) and 2
small red potaoes, with the last cup of the seafood chicken stock dish
from dinner. We filtered the solids out and have them on the side to
add after blendering the rest. Call it 'potato eddo soup' if you like.

Surveying my now emptying crisper, I have someting we didn't get. I
think someone planned to make a fast celery munchie with that canned
cheese (hey, don't knock it! I like it in moderation!). Anyways,
stuff happened fast and it got split as leftovers so now I have about
1/2 a celery plant.... and a can of cheese...

Oh well, figure that celery out as a base for dinner. For now, it's
almost lunch time.

And folks say we don't talk cooking. I say, some folks are missing the
cooking posts.

lol well they could never miss your enthusiasm and love of food)

My rotisserie is just a horizontal one in a small oven. It doesn't have a
fancy basket to do all the things you are doing. I do enjoy reading about
them though))
