Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 7 carrots, peeled, sliced in half lengthwise, then cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 2 red bell peppers, cut into large chunks
  • 1 delicata squash, unpeeled, split lengthwise, seeds removed and cut into half moons
  • 1 yellow onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 tablespoon kosher or sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Place all the vegetables on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and toss to coat all the vegetables and sprinkle with salt. Alternatively at this point you can place the vegetables in a large zipper bag and refrigerate overnight.
  3. Roast for 45-50 minutes, stirring halfway through, or until tender and golden.
  4. Remove the vegetables from the oven, drizzle with maple syrup and roast an additional 5 minutes or until caramelized and golden.
  5. Serve with additional salt to taste.

Notes

- For extra crispiness, ensure the vegetables are spread in a single layer on the baking sheet without overcrowding. Use two baking sheets if necessary. This allows them to roast rather than steam. - If making ahead, prepare the vegetables and toss with oil and salt, then refrigerate overnight in a sealed bag. Add them to the hot oven just before you're ready to cook. - When roasting, listen for a gentle sizzle from the vegetables, indicating they are caramelizing and not just steaming. If they sound too quiet, increase the oven temperature slightly or reduce liquid content. - Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 10-15 minutes or in a microwave until warmed through.
