Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 small heads of broccoli, cut into same-size florets
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, diced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 red onion, peeled and sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 Tablespoons olive oil, or more if needed
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon balsamic cream
  • 5.3 ounces (150g) feta cheese, diced or crumbled
  • Fresh herbs of choice: cilantro, thyme, parsley, chopped*

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line one or two rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli and sweet potatoes with smoked paprika, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper.
  3. Spread onto baking sheets. Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on one or two baking sheets, leaving plenty of room between them. Avoid overcrowding the pans or the vegetables will steam instead of roast. Scatter the red onions all over and drizzle a little more olive oil.
  4. Roast in oven for about 30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender and caramelized and the broccoli is crisp around the edges.
  5. Drizzle the balsamic cream over the roasted veggies. Sprinkle the crumbled or diced feta all over, add more black pepper, fresh herbs and serve. Enjoy!

Notes

* I used fresh cilantro in this recipe but the recipe works really well with thyme instead, especially if you serve it with a roast.
