Root vegetables like sweet potato, beetroot and carrots are high in beta-carotene an important nutrient that helps combat inflammation in the body and supports eye health and immune function.
Ingredients
Tahini Dressing
1 tsp raw honey or 100% pure maple syrup
Instructions
1) Set oven temperature to 200*C and line two baking trays with baking paper.
2) Toss vegetables in olive oil. Toss beetroot separately so all of your vegetables don’t turn red.
3) Place sweet potato and beetroot on one tray and then onion, turnips and carrots on the other tray. Sprinkle in sea salt and then put in the oven.
4) Place trays in the oven and bake root veggies for around 40 minutes (until they are cooked through and golden brown). You can take the onion tray out after around 25-30 minutes.
5) Blend dressing ingredients together. Add a little water, 1 tbsp at a time, if you desire a thinner dressing.
6) Serve your roasted vegetables on a serving dish drizzled in dressing. Also delicious served with green leafs like baby spinach or rocket.
