Savory and sweet vegetable side dish. Savory and sweet vegetable side dish.
Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    2 Tbsp Olive Oil
    1 medium onion, Sliced into sections (rather than slices)
    1 12 oz bag Mann’s butternut squash cubed
    1 cup carrots, peeled and cut diagonally
    1 Tbsp dark brown sugar
    ½ tsp cinnamon
    ½ tsp Herbes de Provence
    salt to taste
    ¼ tsp black pepper to taste
    Optional, hazelnuts or walnuts (not in nutritional analysis)

Directions

f servings approximately 1 1/4 cups each.

Preheat oven to 450. Line large baking sheet with foil, coat the foil with cooking spray. Arrange vegetables in single layer on foil; mix well with Olive Oil (I use a small spray bottle to mist them). Sprinkle vegetables with brown sugar and spices.

Bake 30 minutes or until evenly browned. Stir occasionally, especially toward the end. Vegetables should remain firm. Remove from oven.

If I have the calories and need some fat/protein for the day, I sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts or walnuts. This is not in the nutritional analysis.

If my meal calls for spicy rather than savory, I replace Herbes de Provence with a pepper (chipotle or cayenne) and add ½ tsp. spicy paprika.
