Ingredients
Scale:
2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed
1 medium red onion, cut into wedges
1 medium beet, peeled and cubed
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons dried rosemary
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, combine all the prepared root vegetables: carrots, parsnips, sweet potato, red onion, and beet.
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables. Add the dried thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables are well-coated.
Spread the vegetable mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through.
In the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle the minced garlic over the vegetables, and drizzle the balsamic vinegar if using.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
