love this. my whole family loves these veggies
Love this! Warm comfort food - but veggies! Not too popular with my husband and son, who object to the "funny" veggies - Parsnips, and squash. Still I make it just for me!
Put all the oil and seasonings in a ziplock bag, add veggies, zip closed and toss around to coat. pour onto the pan and bake as directed. coats the veggies more evenly and is less messy.
Last year I roasted winter veggies instead of the traditional "sugary, fattening potatoes; sweet and regular" fearful that my family would revolt and to my surprise and delight they didn't. They actually ate more of them and I didn't have left overs. They were all gone. We had to make more the next days to eat with Turkey and cranberry salad. It was great. I recommend to try it and see what happens. I have found a "new" tradition. Healthy and Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
