Ingredients

• 3 medium Carrots
• 3 medium Parsnips
• 2 medium Sweet potatoes
• 2 medium Red onions
• 3 small Beets
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

Wash, peel, and trim all root vegetables (carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, beets, and onions).

Step 3

Cut the vegetables into evenly-sized pieces, about 1-inch cubes or similar for even roasting.

Step 4

Place the cut vegetables in a large mixing bowl.

Step 5

Add olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme to the bowl. Toss everything thoroughly until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread the coated vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid crowding to ensure even roasting.

Step 7

Nestle the rosemary sprigs among the vegetables for added aroma during roasting.

Step 8

Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheet from the oven, discard the rosemary sprigs, and serve the roasted root vegetables warm. Adjust seasoning with extra salt or pepper if desired.
