Vegetables
- 2 cups sweet potatoes, cubed
- 1½ cups brussels sprouts, halved
- 1 cup carrots, sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Maple Glaze
Toppings
- ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
- ¼ cup pistachios, chopped
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the vegetables.
- Toss the vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes, halved brussels sprouts, and sliced carrots. Add olive oil, salt, and black pepper, then toss well to coat everything evenly.
- Roast the vegetables: Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast them in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until they are tender and caramelized on the edges.
- Add the maple glaze: Remove the baking sheet and drizzle the maple syrup over the roasted veggies. Toss gently to coat the vegetables evenly with the syrup.
- Glaze in the oven: Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes. This step allows the maple syrup to glaze the vegetables beautifully.
- Top and serve: Once out of the oven, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and chopped pistachios over the glazed veggies. Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute pistachios with walnuts or pecans for a different nutty flavor.
- For a vegan version, omit the feta or use a plant-based cheese alternative.
- To save time, prep vegetables ahead by chopping them the day before.
- If you prefer less sweetness, reduce the maple syrup to 1 tablespoon.
- This recipe can be doubled and roasted on two sheet pans if serving more people.
