Roasted vegetables
Roasting vegetables carmelizes their sugars and makes them sweeter and more flavorful. There is no other cooking method that concentrates flavors the way roasting does. It makes these carrots, parsnips, and potatoes sing!
And it’s so simple to do. With my home daycare, I love having “toss it in and forget it” recipes. I don’t always have time to stand over a recipe while I’m making it. I love my Ninja Foodi air fryer oven to toss a sheet of food in and go back to the kids. I can have dinner ready right when we get off work. And that’s a win for me!
Roasted root vegetables
Root vegetables are in season in the winter and fall, so it makes them ideal for this kind of recipe. (You can even grow your own) But you have to choose ones that are similar in density and texture for them to have the same cooking time and all of them turn out great.
You can use a combination of any of these:
- Butternut squash
- Carrots
- Sweet potatoes
- Potatoes
- Parsnips
- Beets
- Rutabaga
- Turnips
Roasted vegetables with potatoes
For us in Oklahoma, potatoes are it! We love them with everything and in any way. If you don’t love potatoes like we do, you can choose another item off the list. Sweet potatoes are a great selection and butternut squash is too! (even though it’s not a root vegetable, it has similarities to them). These air fryer smashed potatoes are going to be a regular around your house like they are ours. They are amazing!
Honey roasted vegetables
These honey roasted root vegetables have such a complex flavor with that drizzle of honey that you are going to want to make them again and again. I can’t wait to hear what you think after you’ve tasted these babies! And try it with a spoon of this chimichurri sauce over the top. You’ll love it!
