Balsamic Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Cauliflower
A fast and easy side dish, your family will love these sweet and caramelized balsamic roasted sweet potatoes, cauliflower and onions.
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potato peeled and cubed
- 1 cauliflower cut into florets, small head
- 1 onion diced red or yellow, medium
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- Herb i.e. chives, parsley, etc.) - optional, minced fresh, for garnish
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with foil. Spray foil with cooking spray and set aside.
- Place chopped veggies (sweet potatoes, cauliflower and onion) in a large resealable plastic bag and drizzle with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Seal tightly and shake well until vegetables are evenly coated.
- Spread vegetables in an even layer on a baking sheet and roast until lightly browned and caramelized, 20-25 minutes.
- Sprinkle with fresh herbs before serving.
Notes
- The key to a deep, golden brown vegetable is not over-crowding the baking sheet. If you find the vegetables too crowded, use two pans. If the vegetables are too crowded you will end up steaming them, not roasting them.
