We're bringing back some classic, comforting flavors with these roast carrots, onions, and potatoes.
We'll admit that it's easy to pass by these humble vegetables at the grocery store in favor of other more trendy vegetables, but this is a mix that everyone enjoys. It's also an easy and affordable dish to make, and it completes a weeknight or holiday meal.
Simply toss the chopped veggies in the melted butter, olive oil, and seasonings. Spread them out in an even layer on a baking sheet, top them with parmesan cheese, and bake them until they're fork-tender. We let them roast until the edges are crispy. Sprinkle them with minced parsley right before serving for a pop of color and fresh flavor.
Most of the cooking time is hands-off so you can relax, or prepare the rest of dinner while they roast.
It's also a really versatile dish so you can swap the vegetables for what you love or what you have on hand.
Serve them alongside any main like chicken, pork chops, steak, fish, burgers, or anything else you fancy!
