Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables & Fruits
- 3 large carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 4 small potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 1 cup Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 1 small red onion, peeled and cut into wedges
- ½ cup dried cranberries
Seasonings & Others
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped (plus sprigs for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare and Season the Veggies: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, combine the carrots, potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and red onion. Add olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss well until every piece is nicely coated with the oil and herbs.
- Roast the Vegetables: Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on a baking sheet or roasting pan. Place it in the oven and roast for 25 minutes, stirring once halfway through to ensure even cooking and browning.
- Add Cranberries and Finish Roasting: Take the pan out and sprinkle dried cranberries over the veggies. Gently toss to combine, then return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes. Roast until all the veggies are tender and caramelized to your liking.
- Garnish and Serve: Once roasted, transfer the vegetables to a serving dish. Add fresh rosemary sprigs on top as a pretty garnish. Serve the roasted veggies warm alongside your Thanksgiving feast and enjoy the cozy, comforting flavors!
Notes
- You can substitute dried cranberries with dried cherries or golden raisins for a different sweet twist.
- To add a nutty texture, sprinkle toasted pecans or walnuts on top before serving.
- Adjust seasoning with more herbs like sage or oregano if desired.
- To make this dish vegan and gluten-free, ensure your dried cranberries have no added sugar with gluten contaminants.
- For extra caramelization, broil the vegetables for the last 2-3 minutes but watch carefully to avoid burning.
