These Maple Roasted Vegetables have become a go-to recipe for many people during Thanksgiving and Christmas. They give a real sense of celebration with their bright colour combination and incredible flavour.

We adore our Roast Potatoes here in the Parsons household. Truth be told, whenever they are in the oven they are most likely always sharing space.

We love to roast these with other vegetables too, especially carrots and parsnips.

After a visit to our local farmers market last week, Sunday dinner got beautifully colourful. This side dish was a delicious addition to our Lemon Sage Butter Roasted Turkey.

I only add the maple syrup to these vegetables after they are partially cooked so that the sugar in the syrup does not burn. This allows the veggies to develop a little caramelization before the light glaze of maple syrup finishes them off.

Simply amazing. So easy to put together, and a crowd pleaser! Such a wonderful comfort dish that is extremely versatile.

I am going to make this for an upcoming dinner party. It looks amazing! Just wondering what happens with the unpeeled garlic cloves? Do they get discarded?

They can stay in for the duration to flavour the oil. or you can, like I often do, take them out when they soften and are fully cooked, which is before the rest of the vegetables and squeeze the garlic out of the skins. You can then add a little salt and pepper, and a splash of olive oil and mash them into a paste to toss with the cooked vegetables, if you are a garlic lover like me. You can also make roasted potatoes and serve the roasted garlic with sour cream on them...one of my favourite things ever.
