Ingredients and Variations
VEGGIES include a mixture of brussel sprouts, butternut squash, parsnips (or carrots), and red onions. If extra potatoes or sweet potatoes or cauliflower are available, toss them in! Other additions include asparagus, mushrooms, green bans, acorns squash. Frozen veggies can be used, too. Simply add on a few extra minutes. SEASONINGS What makes this dish so special is the sweet glaze of maple or honey, and assorted savory herbs. Fresh sliced garlic (or garlic powder), sprigs of rosemary, thyme, or orange zest can be added to the seasoning mixture. EXTRAS Cranberries and pecans add an extra festive touch to oven-roasted vegetables. Feel free to sub other favorite nuts, seeds, or dries fruits, if desired. Try pepitas and cranberries for a red and green Christmas theme, or go for hazelnuts and chopped dried apricots for something different. Have fun getting creative in the kitchen!
