Thanksgiving menus are usually the same; the turkey, cranberry, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans and pie. Is OK to keep the tradition; however, you can CREATE NEW TRADITIONS for your family with my Roasted Mixed Fresh Veggies recipe. Totally unexpected and budget friendly!
This is a healthy side dish for Thanksgiving and for almost any meal. You can use the veggies that I used today or you can select any other veggies that are in season. I am sharing my recipe with you because it is great for large groups, perfect to feed a lot of family members. This recipe serves 4 plus people; however, you can increase the ingredients easily. Also, once you do the peeling, cutting and chopping and put the tray in the oven, you can forget about it for the next 40 minutes. Are you ready? CREATE this NEW TRADITION and enjoy!
