• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

Peel the carrots and parsnips, then cut them into sticks approximately 2 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.

Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half.

Step 4

Peel and slice the red onion into thin wedges.

Step 5

Place the prepared vegetables on a large baking sheet.

Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss everything until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 7

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.

While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Add the honey and balsamic vinegar to the saucepan, stirring until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, then remove it from heat.

Step 10

After 20 minutes of roasting, remove the vegetables from the oven and pour the warm glaze over them. Toss to coat evenly.
