Ingredients

• 1 butternut squash (2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
• 1 pound red potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
• 3 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
• 1 medium red onion, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
• 3 tablespoons Crisco® Light Olive Oil or Canola Oil
• 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

• Place the squash, potatoes, parsnips and onion in a shallow 3-qt. baking dish. Combine the oil, salt and tarragon; drizzle over vegetables and toss to coat. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 1 hour or until tender, stirring once.
• Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, bring broth to a boil. Add broccoli and lemon peel. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 2 minutes or until broccoli is crisp-tender.
• In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and 1/2 cup milk until smooth. Add to broccoli. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add to roasted vegetables; stir to combine.
• In a small bowl, combine the baking mix, cornmeal, cayenne and remaining milk until smooth. Drop batter in 12 mounds over hot vegetables. Bake, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes or until topping is browned. Yield: 12 servings.
