ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH WITH ROOT VEGETABLES
Even finicky folks will eat their vegetables when they're tossed with seasonings and olive oil, then roasted. To save time, our home economists suggest you peel and cut the squash, rutabagas and turnips earlier in the day. Place in resealable plastic bags and chill until ready to use.

SEAN'S MOMMY'S ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES
I wanted to do something different as a vegetable side dish. It was Thanksgiving, so I got a bunch of root vegetables and roasted them. They were a hit and are now a staple at our holiday table. I cook them during the year sometimes, as well.

I wanted a vegetable medley good for the fall. I took 3 recipes and changed them up to the following recipe. This recipe is good when reheated in the microwave, or I have frozen some and used later.
