Recipe Details

  • Cook Time: 30 minutes

  • Total Time: 45 minutes

  • Servings: 6 portions

Ingredients

  • 4 cups butternut squash, peeled and cubed

  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

  • 1 lb fresh carrots, peeled and cut into uniform batons or sticks

  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries

  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (for a toasted crunch)

  • 1/3 cup crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil (divided)

  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet (or two) with parchment paper or heavy-duty foil.

  2. Arrange Vegetables: Group the prepared butternut squash cubes, halved Brussels sprouts, and carrot sticks neatly in sections across your baking sheet.

  3. Season: Drizzle the vegetables evenly with olive oil and maple syrup. Season with dried thyme, salt, and black pepper, tossing each section gently to coat.

  4. Roast: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the squash is tender and the carrots and Brussels sprouts are nicely caramelized.

  5. Add Accents: Remove the pan from the oven and scatter the dried cranberries and chopped pecans across the warm vegetables.

  6. Finish and Serve: Top with crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese just before serving so it lightly softens against the warm roasted medley. Enjoy warm as a stunning side dish or a light vegetarian main!
