Roasted Orange, Carrot and Parsnips Recipe

If parsnips aren't your favorite, try this with three-fourths a pound of medium-red potatoes -- or just double the amount of carrots.

 

Ingredients

3/4 pound carrots

3/4 pound parsnips

1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1 tablespoon frozen orange

2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoons minced fresh marjoram or parsley (optional)

 

Method

Preheat oven to 450o. Peel carrots and parsnips; cut into 2 1/2 x 3/8- inch pieces. Toss with olive oil, slat, and pepper; arrange in a single layer on 2 large nonstick baking sheets. Bake for 15 minutes or until browned tender, stirring every 5 minutes.

 

Transfer to a serving bowl; toss with remaining ingredients.
