It’s the most wonderful time of the year! The time of year when it’s seasonally appropriate to roast every veggie that you eat. If you know me, you know I am a huge fan of all things roasted (like this Lemon Roasted Broccoli, my Roasted Beet & Goat Cheese Hummus, or my Seasonal Roasted Veggie Salad) and today’s recipe is no exception.

When the colder months hit all I want to eat are things that are warm and grounding and not so hard to digest. Winter also means heartier veggies that hold up well to a high temp roasting, such as parsnips, are in season, making this recipe the perfect one to grace your holiday table.

The added turmeric gives it a gorgeous golden colour, while also upping the anti-inflammatory benefits of the dish. I’m a big fan of sneaking in nutrients in any way possible and sprinkling turmeric onto everything from scrambled eggs to roasted veggies is a great way to bring in the power of this spice.

It’s being studied for it’s role in alleviating symptoms of depression, arthritis, and blood sugar balance to name but a few. 

Now, without further ado, to the recipe!
