Tips for Enhancing the Recipe:

  • Add a touch of spice: Sprinkle some ground cumin, chili powder, or paprika over the vegetables before roasting.
  • Use other root vegetables: Substitute turnips, parsnips, or rutabagas for the butternut squash or sweet potato.
  • Add nuts or seeds: Roast the vegetables with a handful of pecans, walnuts, or sunflower seeds for crunch.
  • Make it a side dish: Serve the roasted vegetables as a side dish to grilled or roasted meats.
  • Add herbs: Sprinkle fresh thyme, rosemary, or sage over the vegetables before roasting for extra flavor.
  • Add a touch of acid: Drizzle a squeeze of lemon or lime juice over the roasted vegetables for brightness.
  • Experiment with different honeys: Use a flavored honey, such as orange blossom or buckwheat, to add additional depth of flavor.
  • Roast the balsamic vinegar: Heat balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan until it’s reduced by half and thickened. Drizzle it over the roasted vegetables before serving.
  • Use a grill pan: Roast the vegetables in a grill pan on the stovetop instead of the oven for a charred flavor.
