Ingredients
- 1 pound parsnips peeled
- 1 pound carrots peeled
- 4 cloves garlic peeled and kept whole
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary (or 2 teaspoons dried, crumbled)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (or other vegetable oil)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425F.
- Cut the parsnips and carrots into similar-sized pieces. It doesn't matter if they are rounds or cut into chunks, as long as they are all about the same size. Place the cut vegetables onto a cookie sheet or into a roasting pan.
- Place garlic gloves and rosemary on top of the vegetables, then add olive oil. Toss the vegetables together to coat them evenly. Add a little bit of salt and pepper.
- Cover the pan with foil and roast for about 30 minutes. Turn the heat down to 375, uncover the vegetables (be careful - there will be steam) and stir gently. Continue to cook for about 20 minutes or until lightly browned.
