Roasted Root Vegetables
From Food Network Kitchens

Ingredients
1 large butternut squash, (1 1/2 to 2 pounds) halved, seeded and peeled
3 large Yukon gold potatoes (1 1/2 pounds), scrubbed
1 bunch medium beets, (about 1 1/2 pounds), scrubbed and tops trimmed
1 medium red onion
2 large parsnips (about 8 ounces)
1 head garlic, cloves separated, and peeled (about 16)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
Place 2 baking sheets in the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.

Cut all the vegetables into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Cut the onions through the base core to keep some of
the layers in chunky pieces. Toss all the vegetables with garlic, olive oil and salt in large bowl.

Season generously with pepper.

Carefully remove the heated baking sheets from the oven, brush or drizzle with olive oil. Divide the
vegetables evenly between the 2 pans, spreading then out to assure they don't steam while roasting.
Roast the vegetables until tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 45 minutes to 1
hour.

Cook's Note: Some very large parsnips have a pithy core, which should be trimmed before cooking.
