Description

A comforting side dish of honey roasted root vegetables that is both nourishing and delicious. Perfect for any meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium carrots, peeled and cubed
  • 4 medium parsnips, peeled and cubed
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 medium beets, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary for garnish
  • Lemon juice for serving (optional)
  • Feta cheese for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Scrub and peel the root vegetables as needed. Cut them into evenly sized pieces—about one-inch cubes work well.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped vegetables with olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat thoroughly.
  4. Spread the vegetable mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Roast the vegetables for 25–35 minutes, stirring halfway through until golden and caramelized.
  6. Once out of the oven, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Finish with a squeeze of lemon or a sprinkle of feta if desired.

Notes

Cut vegetables into uniform pieces for even cooking. Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet for best results.
