When the weather gets chilly, I love turning on the oven to roast a tray of seasonal vegetables. It is one of those simple pleasures that fills the whole house with a warm and comforting aroma that makes everyone feel right at home.

My best tip for this recipe is to cut your vegetables into pieces that are roughly the same size. This ensures that everything finishes cooking at the same time and gets that lovely caramelized edge that tastes so delicious.

🧺 Ingredients

2 large carrots, peeled and chopped
1 medium sweet potato, cubed
1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
1 red onion, cut into wedges
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt
0.5 teaspoon black pepper

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2
Place all the chopped vegetables on a large rimmed baking sheet.
3
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and sprinkle with the salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
4
Toss everything together with your hands or a spatula until every piece is coated nicely in the oil and spices.
5
Spread the vegetables out into a single layer so they have room to roast properly.
6
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and golden brown.

💡 Tips

These vegetables are wonderful served alongside roast chicken or a simple piece of fish. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days and reheat them in a pan with a little butter.
