Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium (peeled, seeded, and diced) butternut squash
- 2 cups (trimmed and halved) Brussels sprouts
- 3 large (peeled and sliced into 1/2-inch pieces) carrots
- 1 large (peeled and sliced into wedges) red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup (grated) parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced butternut squash, halved Brussels sprouts, sliced carrots, and red onion wedges.
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and toss to coat them evenly.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper over the vegetables. Toss again to ensure the seasonings are distributed evenly.
Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is minimal overlap for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, stirring the vegetables halfway through, until they are tender and lightly caramelized.
Optional: If using parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the hot vegetables immediately after removing them from the oven for a touch of richness.
Serve warm as a side dish or light main course. Enjoy!
