The Best Way To Enjoy Autumn Vegetables is to Roast Them.

Gather The Produce For Your Autumn Roasted Vegetables

The wonderful thing about this recipe is that it takes advantage of the bounty of fall produce available right now. When you purchase produce that is in season, it not only tastes the best, it’s budget-friendly as well. Here’s what you’ll need:

• Hearty Potatoes
  I use baby potatoes since they are the perfect size to roast whole. The potatoes get crispy, golden brown and tender inside after roasting. Russets or red potatoes chopped into chunks would also work well.
• Earthy Brussels Sprouts
  These mini cabbages add great texture and flavor. Brussels sprouts caramelize beautifully in the oven. If you aren’t a fan, kale or cauliflower florets also pair nicely.
• Sweet Butternut Squash
  This winter squash lends natural sweetness and brilliant color. Feel free to use any hard squash like acorn or pumpkin too.
• Carrots
  The carrots roast up tender with a hint of sweetness. I love the contrast of their bright orange against the other fall hues.
• Crunchy Pecans
  Chopped pecans toast up to add a delicious crunch and nuttiness. Walnuts or hazelnuts would be tasty too.

Tips For Roasting Perfect Autumn Roasted Vegetables

While this recipe comes together quickly, there are a few tips to ensure your Autumn Roasted Vegetables come out caramelized and full of flavor:

• Cut the vegetables uniformly. Try to cut all the veggies to a similar size so they will cook at the same rate. I aim for around 1 inch pieces.
• Toss with oil and seasonings. Coating the vegetables in oil helps them get golden brown and crispy edges. I season with just a bit of salt, pepper and garlic for flavor without overpowering the veggies.
• Roast at a high temperature. Cranking up the oven temp to 400°F gives you the caramelized exterior and tender interior you want.
• Flip halfway through. Flipping the veggies midway through roasting ensures even cooking.
• Roast until fork tender. The potatoes should easily pierce with a fork when they are done.

Storing Your Leftover Autumn Roasted Vegetables

While this recipe makes a generous amount, you likely won’t have leftovers since it’s so tasty! But if you do, proper storage is important:

• Let the roasted vegetables cool completely before storing.
• Transfer to an airtight container or zip top bag.
• Refrigerate for 3-5 days.

Reheat leftovers in a 400°F oven until warmed through, about 15 minutes. Add a splash of olive oil or broth if the veggies seem dry.

The flavors meld together even more as it sits, so your leftovers might be even tastier!

More Tips For The Best Autumn Roasted Vegetables

I wanted to share a few more tips to help you get perfect roasted veggies every time:

• Use Fresh Garlic: The garlic granules season just fine, but 2-3 minced garlic cloves would provide even more flavor.
• Get Creative With Seasonings: Try rosemary, thyme, chili powder, cumin or curry powder for more spice.
• Toss In Cranberries: Dried cranberries lend festive tartness and color.
• Finish With Herbs: Fresh parsley, cilantro or chives on top adds brightness.
• Drizzle With Balsamic: A glug of good balsamic vinegar balances the richness.
• Grate On Cheese: Asiago, parmesan, cheddar or feta offer savory garnish.
