Ingredients

  • 1 pound yellow potatoes cubed
  • 1 pound sweet potatoes I used regular sweet potatoes and purple ones
  • 1 pound carrots chopped into 1 inch chunks
  • 1 small onion red onion (but can use other onions)
  • ¼ cup olive oil regular olive oil not EVOO (due to high heat)
  • 1½ teaspoon thyme fresh (if using dried use ½ amount)
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary coarsely chopped
  • 1½ teaspoon Kosher salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed root vegetables and red onion. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with thyme, rosemary, and kosher salt. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.
  • Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is space between them to promote even roasting. Roast in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, tossing the vegetables halfway through cooking, until they are tender and golden brown on the edges.
  • Transfer the roasted vegetables to a serving dish and garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
