Roasted Root Vegetables Recipe
While you’re thinking about which gluten-free pie and turkey and stuffing recipes you’ll be making for next week’s holiday, don’t forget your veggies, too! This Roasted Root Vegetables recipe is a great holiday side dish. If you are short on oven space, this can be made a day or two ahead and then reheated while the turkey or roast rests. Plus, these veggies are also good at room temperature, so don’t fret if they aren’t piping hot when you serve them.
These veggies are roasted to perfection first with just a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and then they’re tossed in a sauce after roasting. The sauce is made from honey, Dijon mustard, and vinegar. I used Marukan Seasoned Gourmet Rice Vinegar, which has the perfect amount of seasoning to help boost the sauce flavor.
