Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1½ pounds sweet potatoes cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 large onions each cut into 6 wedges
- 1 pound carrots cut into 1-inch pieces
- 10 to 12 ounces parsnips cut into 1-inch pieces
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat the oven to 450˚F. Line a 15x10 jelly roll pan with parchment paper or foil. Set aside.
- Prepare the vegetables. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes, onion wedges, carrot pieces, parsnips, and garlic. Add olive oil and season with Italian seasoning, seasoned salt, and black pepper; toss until everything is well combined.
- Roast. Transfer the vegetables to the prepared pan and roast for 30 to 35 minutes, or until tender and browned, stirring halfway through.
- Finish and serve. Remove the roasted veggies from the oven and let them stand for a few minutes. Taste for salt and pepper, adjust accordingly, and serve.
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.
