Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the butternut squash, remove the seeds, and cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Peel and slice the carrots and parsnips into evenly-sized sticks, about 2 inches long.
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half.
Peel the red onion and cut it into thick wedges.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all the prepared vegetables.
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and sprinkle with minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until well coated.
Spread the vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the vegetables for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through to promote even cooking.
If desired, drizzle balsamic vinegar and honey over the vegetables in the last 5 minutes of roasting for added sweetness and tang.
Remove the vegetables from the oven once they are tender and caramelized around the edges.
Transfer the roasted vegetables to a serving platter and garnish with extra sprigs of rosemary and thyme, if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
