Roasted Parsnip Medley Recipes

ROASTED VEGETABLE MEDLEY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Place the yams, parsnips, and carrots onto the baking sheets. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then add the zucchini and asparagus, and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Continue baking until all of the vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes more. Once tender, remove from the oven, and allow to cool for 30 minutes on the baking sheet.
• Toss the roasted peppers together with the garlic, basil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until combined. Add the roasted vegetables, and toss to mix. Serve at room temperature or cold.

ROASTED PARSNIP MEDLEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small pot, combine the 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons reserved garlic-pepper oil and the lemon pepper seasoning. Heat over low heat until just warm. Remove from the heat and let sit for 10 minutes to allow the lemon pepper seasoning to infuse the oil.
• Cut the large thick stems off the head of cauliflower. Break the head up into small florets. Slice the potatoes and parsnips in approximately 1-inch thick pieces. Place all the vegetables into a large bowl, add the half the seasoned oil, and toss to coat. Add the remaining oil and toss again. Transfer to 2 baking sheets and roast until lightly brown and tender, 35 to 40 minutes. If the vegetables start to brown too quickly, loosely cover with foil. Transfer to a serving bowl.

ROASTED ROOT MEDLEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place the beets on a quarter of the baking sheet. Place the carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes and onions on the other side of the beets (to keep the beets from staining the other vegetables). Drizzle the vegetables with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Gently toss the vegetables to coat and roast until tender, about 35 minutes, turning midway through roasting. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile make a quick vinaigrette in a small bowl by whisking the remaining olive oil into the orange juice and zest. Add the herbs and season.
• Place the vegetables in serving dish, drizzle with the vinaigrette and gently stir to coat.
