Ingredients
  

4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks

3 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

2 medium potatoes, diced into 1-inch cubes (your choice of variety)

1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed

1 medium red onion, cut into wedges

4 cloves of garlic, finely minced

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Heat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting.

    Prep the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the carrot chunks, parsnip pieces, potato cubes, sweet potato cubes, and red onion wedges.

      Make the Herb Mixture: In a separate small bowl, blend the minced garlic with the olive oil, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until thoroughly combined to create a fragrant herb mixture.

        Coat the Veggies: Drizzle the herb and garlic mixture over the assembled root vegetables in the large bowl. Use your hands or a large spoon to toss everything together, ensuring all vegetables are well-coated with the flavorful mixture.

          Spread on Baking Sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to facilitate easy cleanup. Arrange the coated vegetables in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they are spaced out to encourage roasting instead of steaming.

            Roast the Vegetables: Transfer the baking sheet to the oven. Roast the vegetables for 30-40 minutes, or until tender and golden brown, giving them a stir halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove the roasted veggies from the oven once they are cooked and beautifully caramelized. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Enjoy these roasted root vegetables warm as a delightful side dish or as a tasty topping for your favorite grain bowl.
