Ingredients

5 medium carrots (peeled)
1 medium celery root (peeled, or 1 bunch celery trimmed)
2 medium turnips (peeled)
2 medium parsnips (peeled)
6 small new potatoes (peeled)
1 medium butternut squash (peeled and seeds removed)
8 to 10 shallots (peeled)
1 whole bulb garlic (cloves separated and peeled)
1/2 cup olive oil
1 bunch fresh thyme or rosemary
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Pre-heat your oven to 375 F.
Pull the little leaves off of the fresh herb stems until you have about a tablespoon of them. Set them aside along with another few whole sprigs of the herbs.
Cut the carrots, turnips, parsnips, potatoes, squash, and celery (or celery root) into about 1-inch pieces. Cutting the vegetables the same size helps ensure they cook evenly.
Transfer the cut vegetables, along with the shallots and garlic, to a large baking pan. Drizzle with olive oil, season with kosher salt and black pepper, sprinkle with the herb leaves and toss to combine. Place the whole herb sprigs in the pan with the veggies.
Roast for 45 minutes or until the vegetables are lightly browned and tender but not too soft.
Remove the whole herb sprigs from the pan and let the vegetables cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Ingredients

1 pound carrots, peeled
1 pound parsnips, peeled
1 large sweet potato, peeled
1 small butternut squash, peeled and seeded (about 2 pounds)
3 tablespoons good olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Cut the carrots, parsnips, sweet potato, and butternut squash in 1 to 1 1/4-inch cubes. All the vegetables will shrink while baking, so don't cut them too small.
Place all the cut vegetables in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Drizzle them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss well. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until all the vegetables are tender, turning once with a metal spatula.
Sprinkle with parsley, season to taste, and serve hot.

SLOW-ROASTED WINTER VEGETABLES

Slow-Roasted Winter Vegetables image

This is a mixture my husband came up with using what we had on hand in the fall, and it became a favorite. The first effort for these slow-roasted vegetables was on the BBQ, but it works just as well in the oven. Tastes even better re-heated, and makes great addition to soups and pot pies.
