Oven Roasted Veggies
This oven roasted veggie recipe combines Brussels sprouts, butternut squash, parsnips or carrots, and red onion tossed in a maple syrup and herb seasoning. Cranberries and pecans are added near the end of roasting, resulting in tender caramelized vegetables with a sweet and savory balance, accented by tart cranberries and crunch from pecans.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts halved if large
- 1 pound butternut squash peeled and cut into 1" cubes
- 2 large parsnip or carrots, cut into 1" chunks
- ½ red onion chopped
- ½ cup cranberries fresh
- ⅓ cup pecans
Seasoning Mix
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon oregano dried
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon thyme dried leaves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a large bowl.
- Add the brussels, butternut squash, parsnips, and red onion to the bowl and toss well to coat.
- Spread onto a large rimmed baking pan. Roast 30 minutes, stirring after 15 minutes.
- Add the cranberries and pecans to the pan and roast an additional 8-10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. (Total roasting time for the veggies is about 40 minutes).
Notes
- Buy pre-cut butternut squash or poke with a fork and microwave for 4 minutes before cutting to make chopping easier.
- Swap vegetables based on availability, adding softer veggies like zucchini or bell peppers during the last 10-15 minutes to avoid overcooking.
- Use a large roasting pan to keep vegetables spaced for better caramelization.
