Roasted Root Vegetables and Brussels Sprouts

September 25, 2013 By Lokness 16 Comments

Roasted Root Vegetables and Brussels Sprouts

Fall is here! I can feel the cool air. Woo hoo! That is really exciting! I love Fall! Until a few days ago, I didn’t think about why I love Fall. After some throughout thinking, I have finally figured it out. When the weather starts to get cold and the wind is blowing outside, it is nice to stay at home. Turn on the heater, drink a cup of hot chocolate, and cuddle up with the loved ones. It is cozy, warm and sweet! That home sweet home feeling is what I love.

To welcome the arrival of Fall, I have this roasted vegetables recipe for you. It is made with some seasonal vegetables, like brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes. It is very easy, but flavorful with all the dried herbs. I also love the color of the dish. There are green, brown, orange, and white. Just amazing to look at. This is definitely a side dish I would make a lot at this Fall. Hope you will like it too!

Roasted Root Vegetables and Brussels Sprouts

Roasted Root Vegetables and Brussels Sprouts (Adapted from Giada De Laurentiis via Foodnetwork.com)

2 servings

Ingredients:

–   3 medium carrots (peeled, washed and cut into 1½-inch dices)

–   2 medium red potatoes (washed and cut into 1½-inch dices)

–   ¼ pound Brussels Sprouts (washed and halved)

–   1 medium parsnip (peeled, washed and cut into 1½-inch dices)

–   1 medium sweet potato (washed and cut into 1½-inch diced)

–   3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

–   ¼ heaping teaspoon dried oregano

–   ¼ heaping teaspoon dried rosemary

–   ¼ teaspoon dried thyme

–   ¼ teaspoon dried basil

–   sea salt

–   ground black pepper

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
  2. In a rimmed baking sheet, toss the vegetables with olive oil. Sprinkle all the dried herbs over the vegetables. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Toss again. If needed, add more olive oil. Spread the vegetables in a single layer. Bake in the oven for 38 – 42 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked and tender. Transfer to a serving plate. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  1. You can substitute any root vegetables with other root vegetables, like butternut squash and yam.
  2. I didn’t try parsnip until this recipe. It has a mild taste with little sweetness. I loved it!
  3. Fresh herbs can be burned easily, so it is better to use dried ones.

    I have a passion for Brussels sprouts. We don’t see them here until nearly Christmas though (it’s still 35°C here at the moment). I can’t wait! Your roasted vegetables look delicious!

      I didn’t try brussels sprouts until a few months ago. Before that, I heard many people saying that they don’t like brussels sprouts. So I hesitated to try. After I tried it, I love it! It is just like cabbage, but with a stronger flavor. And they are so adorable! Hope you can get your hands in brussels sprouts soon! 🙂

    I love roasted vegetables, and especially all kinds of root veggies… I wish my family eats brussel sprouts like I do then we’d be eating more frequently! Very lovely fall dish!

      Yes, root vegetables are mostly sweet and some creamy. They are so good when roasted. If you made this dish, your can steal all the brussels sprouts to yourself, and leave your family everything else. 😀

Yesterday was a good day, and I’m still feeling Yesterday was a good day, and I’m still feeling the hangover from it. To continue w/ the happy mood, I’m sharing a sunshine kind of recipe, Blood Orange Sorbet.🍊 Tart, little sweet & a hint of floral. This pink sorbet is crazy easy to make that you just whisk everything together & pour into the machine. Easy breezy!

Bryan & I have been dreaming about these chicken t Bryan & I have been dreaming about these chicken tenders from Sesame Grill @sesamegrill_626 for a few days. These tenders are unlike any we had before. Crunchy crust, yet delicate & not too heavy. The meat is super juicy & soft. Very simple food, but really well executed! Sesame Grill was original a fine dining restaurant, they redid their menu because of the pandemic & started to sell tenders only. And that got really popular! Incredible story & hope they’ll continue do well. If you’re ever in the area, definitely check them out.

Char Siu with Rice (叉燒飯) is a dish that I ca Char Siu with Rice (叉燒飯) is a dish that I can never get enough. Since I didn’t live close to a Chinese restaurant for a long time, I have been making my own for years. This week, I finally reshot the photos & gave a quick update for the recipe. Juicy & tender pork coated in a slightly sweet BBQ sauce, then top them over some hot steamed rice with a sweet soy sauce. Every bite is so satisfying!

Almost every year, I make holiday treats for famil Almost every year, I make holiday treats for families, friends & Bryan’s coworkers. (Except last year, because we just moved to Northern California.)🎁 Year after year, I was told that their favorites are the marshmallows! 
.
Homemade marshmallows are really something special. Soft & pillowy, and they’re usually less sweet & flavored. I have 3 flavored marshmallow recipes on the blog, chocolate, raspberry & orange. Chocolate is no doubt the most popular. If you prefer something fruity, raspberry is the one to go. If you’re looking for something unique, definitely try the orange. 
.
Don’t ask me to pick a favorite, because I do love them all. Another plus about marshmallows is that they last for at least 2 weeks (likely longer), so you have plenty of time to give them out to friends or finish them yourself!
