roasted root veggies and tomato

Things you'll need:

Large sheet pan: 12x17" or 13x18"
Large mixing bowl (optional)

Ingredients:

Gold potatoes: 2-3 medium
Red potatoes: 2-3 medium
Beets (any color or variety): 1-2 large or 2-3 medium
Tomato (heirloom, plum, or any ripe varieties): 2-3 large or 4-6 medium
Avocado or olive oil: 4-5 tablespoons
Salt: 2-3 tbsp
Pepper: 2-3 tbsp

Prep:

  • Wash all ingredients
  • Preheat oven to 375
    • I normally toss the prepped food right onto the sheet pan, you can use a mixing bowl if easier for tossing ingredients
  • Cube the taters into pieces no more than an inch, leave skins on, toss on pan/bowl
  • Beets: I tend to take the skin off as it can get tough.  You can use a peeler or the knife you're prepping with.  After skinning, cube the same size as taters, toss on pan/bowl
  • Tomato: cut them into wedges no more than an inch wide, toss on pan/bowl
  • Add the oil, salt and pepper and toss all ingredients together.
    • If mixing in bowl, move ingredients to pan
Cooking:
  • Place the pan in the oven near the middle rack
  • After 30 minutes take it our and gently fold or toss everything
  • Place back in oven
  • At 50 minutes in (twenty minutes from the toss) remove and check for done-ness.  If there is color and the texture you want, your done.  If you want more color, place back in oven for ten minutes.
Options: garlic, onion, brussels sprouts, fresh herbs, fresh citrus wedges, sweet potatoes, any number of chili pepper powders
