Recipe tips

  • This recipe works well with all kinds of veggies – turnips, beets, … You can easily omit some or use different quantities.
  • Some take longer to roast than others, so it’s good to slice those thinner (when I roast vegetables I noticed that carrots always take ages to cook – in fact, the longest of all the vegetables and for that reason, I don’t cut them into large chunks).
  • The seasoning used should be enough for 2.5 pounds (1.5 kilos) of veggies, but you might add more if you feel it’s needed. However, it’s important to make sure all the veggies are coated as evenly as possible to avoid over-seasoning some and under-seasoning others.
  • For an easy clean-up, line your baking tray with baking parchment. This will also make it easier for you to mix them throughout the roasting as they will not stick to the paper.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound cauliflower florets (450 grams)
  • ½ pound carrots , sliced (225 grams), see note 2
  • 1 pound potatoes , cut into chunks (450 grams)
  • ½ pound sweet potatoes , cut into chunks (225 grams)
  • 12 ounces brussels sprouts (350 grams), see note 3
  • 1 onion , quartered
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 400° Fahrenheit (200° Celsius).
  • Transfer the prepped vegetables – cauliflower, carrots, potatoes, and brussels sprouts into a large bowl (at least a 6-quart/6-liter). Separate the onion layers – leaving about 2-3 layers together to avoid drying out. Add them to the bowl.

  • Drizzle the veggies with olive oil and sprinkle the seasoning over (sprinkling helps distribute the seasoning more evenly).

  • With your hands, mix the veggies well. This way you will prevent having some pieces over-seasoned while others are under-seasoned.
  • Transfer the veggies onto a large baking tray (see note 5) lined with baking parchment.

  • Bake at 400° Fahrenheit (200° Celsius) for 35 minutes or until the veggies are cooked to your liking. 15 minutes into cooking time use a spoon to stir them around.
  • Enjoy warm!

Notes

  1. You can use any vegetables you like or have on hand.
  2. For me, carrots usually take the longest to cook from all of these vegetables so if you like them soft rather than crunchier, cut them into thin slices – about a ¼-inch thin (0.5-centimeter).
  3. I used frozen brussels sprouts (about 12 ounces). You can use fresh sprouts if you have those on hand. I would probably cut them in half, if too large.
  4. Cooking time may vary slightly. This depends on the veggies and your oven as well. I recommend checking/tasting them before taking them out. Also, you can taste a few and adjust the seasoning, if you feel it is not enough for you.
  5. If you use a 9×13-inch (22×33-centimeter) baking tray, you might need to roast them in 2 batches. If you decide to use this size of a tray, I would recommend stirring the veggies more than once, to achieve an even cooking as they might be a bit over-crowded there. If you can, use a larger tray than this!
