Ingredients
- 1 medium butternut squash
- 4 medium beets
- 6 whole garlic cloves
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Peel the butternut squash, remove the seeds, and cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Step 3
Scrub the beets clean, peel them, and cut them into 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the butternut squash, beets, garlic cloves, and fresh rosemary sprigs.
Step 5
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables, then sprinkle in the salt and black pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.
Step 6
Spread the vegetable mixture out onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan to allow for proper roasting.
Step 7
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even caramelization.
Step 8
Check for doneness by piercing the vegetables with a fork; they should be tender and lightly browned at the edges.
Step 9
Remove the rosemary sprigs before serving. Transfer the roasted vegetables to a serving dish and enjoy warm as a side dish or on their own!
