How to Make Roasted Fall Vegetables
STEP ONE: Preheat and Season the Beets
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line three baking sheets with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
In a large bowl, toss the beets with one tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove and set aside.
STEP TWO: Season the Sweet Potatoes and Brussels Sprouts
In the same bowl, toss the sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts with the remaining olive oil, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder.
STEP THREE: Roast Separately
Spread each vegetable on its own baking sheet to prevent color bleeding from the beets.
Roast the Brussels sprouts for 20-25 minutes, sweet potatoes for 30-35 minutes, and beets for 35-40 minutes.
Stir each tray halfway through to help everything roast evenly and get crisp edges.
STEP FOUR: Finish and Serve
Once all the vegetables are tender and caramelized, combine them in one baking dish. Sprinkle with dried thyme, toss gently, and serve warm.
Top with crumbled goat cheese, gorgonzola, or toasted pecans for a little extra richness or crunch.
Expert Tips for Success

✔️ DO Cut vegetables to similar sizes to ensure even roasting.
✔️ DO Use parchment paper on the baking sheets for easy cleanup.
❌ DO NOT Overcrowd the baking sheets to allow the vegetables to roast rather than steam.
Storage
Store leftover oven-roasted fall vegetables in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This dish is not freezer-friendly. Reheat roasted vegetables in the oven at 350°F (175°C) to retain their crispiness.
Recipe FAQs
Roasted fall vegetables pair well with a variety of main dishes, including roasted chicken, grilled steak, or baked fish. They also complement grains like quinoa or brown rice.
The vegetables are done when they are tender and slightly crispy on the edges. You can test their doneness by piercing them with a fork; they should be easily pierced but not mushy.
Soggy vegetables are often a result of overcrowding the baking sheet. Make sure the vegetables are spread out in a single layer to allow proper roasting.
