Notes

Use Different Root Veggies: While sweet potatoes, carrots, and parsnips are a great combination, you can do other varieties, too! Winter squash, rutabaga, wedges of cabbage, and potatoes are all great options.

Don’t Crowd the Pan: If you don’t have a large baking sheet, use a couple of smaller pans so you don’t have to crowd the veggies together. Giving them a little space helps them brown nicely and crisp up.

Add-Ins: When the veggies are done roasting, adding a sprinkle of fresh lemon juice, chopped fresh herbs, or Parmesan can enhance the flavors even more.
