Honey Roasted Vegetables
Honey Roasted Vegetables offer a caramelized mix of root vegetables and Brussels sprouts glazed with honey and seasoned with thyme, salt, and pepper. Roasting brings out their natural sweetness while the honey adds a gentle glaze, complemented by a touch of olive oil and fresh parsley for garnish. This side dish highlights contrasting textures—tender interiors with slightly crisp edges—making it a rich and flavorful accompaniment.
Ingredients
- 1 pound beet peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 3 medium carrot cut into 1/2-inch chunks

- 1 large red onion peeled and cut into chunks
- 1/2 cup honey warmed
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons thyme dried
- kosher salt
- black pepper to taste, ground
- parsley for garnish, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil; set aside.
- Place the vegetables in a large bowl. Drizzle with honey, olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Scatter the vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, flipping once or twice during the cooking time, until the vegetables are fork-tender and browned on the edges.
- Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- This recipe serves 6 as a side dish and 4-5 as a main; adjust quantities accordingly.
- When doubling, use two sheet pans to ensure even roasting instead of steaming the vegetables.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
