Making tasty and interesting side dishes might be the most difficult part of Thanksgiving. The turkey is the easy part (just toss it in the oven and wait a few hours), because everyone loves turkey. The sides, however, can be controversial because most people have eclectic and specific taste. If you are looking to make something yummy and new, try this Food Network roasted brussels sprouts recipe.
Ingredients
1/3 cup olive oil
3 carrots cut into 1 1/2-inch circles
1 1/2 cups Brussels sprouts cut in half
4 cups of red potatoes cut into thick slices
3 parsnips cut into 1 1/2-inch slices
1 cup sweet potatoes cut into 1 1/2-inch slices
1 tablespoon of dried oregano
1 tablespoon of dried rosemary
1 teaspoon of dried thyme
1 teaspoon of dried basil
1/4 teaspoon of sea salt
1 teaspoon of ground black pepper
Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F, then grease a sheet pan with olive oil. Add veggies to the pan, then mix in the dried herbs and seasonings. Toss the mix until everything is coated evenly. Set the pan in the middle of the oven and cook for 35 ish minutes or until the veggies are crispy.
