Holiday Roasted Vegetables Recipe
Description
The Holiday Roasted Vegetables Recipe features trimmed Brussels sprouts and sliced carrots tossed in maple syrup, fresh thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet. Raw bacon slices are added on top before roasting at 425°F for 20 minutes, allowing vegetables to start caramelizing and bacon to begin crisping. Afterward, cranberries, pecans, sliced garlic, and quartered red onion are stirred in for an additional 20 minutes of roasting until the vegetables are golden and bacon is crispy.
This dish balances sweet, savory, and tart flavors with a variety of textures—from tender roasted vegetables to crunchy pecans and crisp bacon. The maple syrup enhances natural sweetness while fresh herbs add aroma and depth. It makes a festive side perfect for holiday meals or special occasions.
