After harvest season we slip into solstice season as the days grow shorter & darker. One of my favorite ways to enjoy this time in late Fall is to make a warming, nurturing bowl of roasted veggies!
This recipe is easy and simple, just the way it should be, with lots of nutrition too! And you can change the vegetables based on your preferences or what is available to you. Instead of kabocha you could use sweet potato, butternut squash, pumpkin, etc. For daikon you could substitute carrot, turnips or parsnips. And if you don’t like cauliflower or want more green to the dish then add broccoli.
Most roasted vegetable dishes you can get out at restaurants or pre-made at the stores are very high in salt and they usually contain a lot of oil. This is equally delicious while letting the natural sweet, salty, savory flavors of the veggies shine. 🙂
