Carrots, parsnips and Brussels sprouts seasoned with thyme, oregano, basil and rosemary, make up this simple mix of Roasted Winter Vegetables, a flavorful addition to any meal! Gluten Free + Paleo + Vegan + Low Calorie
The roasting festivities continue in full swing around here! At least, I’m not roasting my hyena off in 100 degree heat. It’s been really nice finally getting cooler weather. Last weekend I broke down and turned on the heat. I was hoping I could get by not turning it on until December to get some electric bill relief.
This summer’s bills from record heat nearly killed me. But the temps dropped 20 degrees last week (from a high of 80’s to 60’s) and when it gets cold in the desert…watch out! The dry climate makes everything feel very cold. One morning it was 34 degrees when I went to swim. The gym peeps were making fun of me in my shorts & flip flops. I was wearing a sweatshirt though. Does that count?
Electric bills and cold weather aside, it’s been really nice using my oven again. During the warmer months I use it as little as possible. It’s just too hot. Oh oven, how I’ve missed you! Now if only I’d ever get my taste buds back.
I haven’t been able to taste much since my sinus surgery. The doctor told me if I could taste before the surgery, it should come back. He told me this not so convincingly so I’m praying and knocking on every piece of wood I can find that it returns soon. It would be kind of strange to be a food blogger if I couldn’t taste. Just saying…
But back to roasting! This recipe is so simple you won’t believe it. All you need are a carrots, brussels sprouts and a plethora of seasonings that I know you have in your cupboard.
I used colored carrots in this, but any color would do. I think there’s something fun about the colored ones. Funfetti! A russet potato or two added to this would also be divine! The seasonings are so versatile any root vegetable is a guaranteed success. I know what I’ll be making for Thanksgiving!

Definitely a favorite! And I love Rosemary in there since it reminds me of the holidays 🙂
Yes! Rosemary happens a lot at my house.
I’m the biggest sucker for rosemary. If rosemary and an oven are involved to make my apartment smell like heaven, I am so there. I’m doing a root and squash side this year with Thanksgiving. I would love to do Brussels in it but my mom will not touch them. She is weird.
I feel for her. I used to not like them either!
Roasted veggies are the best! I still haven’t finalized my menu bc I have too many choices from all of you
Thats my problem as well!
This is exactly the kind of dish I’m hoping appears on our Thanksgiving table! We’re traveling so it’s tough to make something… but maybe I can throw it together when we get there. Beautiful!
Hey Laura! This would so be an easy one to do. Hope you have fun!
These look simply divine!
Thank you Sarah!

veggies are just so much better roasted! I can eat them like candy. I love how you used four different spices here! pinned 🙂
The more the merrier!
There is nothing better than roasted vegetables! These look so pretty!
Thanks Morgan!
Oregano on roasted veg is one of my favorites! I got my family addicted to oregano that way 😉
It’s unsuspected right? We only think of it used for Italian food.
In San Francisco, two people can be wearing the SUCH different outfits on the same day – I’ll often be all bundled up with a hat and boots and my boyfriend will be taking off layers!
HAHA…same in Phoenix! Some people are in shorts and others bundled up like it’s below zero. Funny stuff!
Ahhh ga ga ga! You know I am soooooo making this THURSDAY! WOOP WOOP!!!
Get it girl!
