Ingredients


  • 1 1/2 lb. Butternut squash
  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 1 lb. Pearl onions, peeled and halved
  • 1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Florida Crystals® Regenerative Organic Light Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper

Balsamic Glaze

  • 1/2 cup Balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons Florida Crystals® Regenerative Organic Light Brown Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F. Line one sheet pan with foil.

Step 2

Roast butternut squash for about 20 minutes or until it is easier to pierce with a knife. Cool, peel, remove seeds, and cut into cubes.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss roasted squash cubes with remaining ingredients, except balsamic glaze ingredients, then turn vegetable mixture onto the lined sheet pan used to roast the squash. Roast for 20-25 minutes or until vegetables are caramelized. Remove pan from oven.

Step 4

While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, combine all the ingredients for the glaze and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces to half.

Step 5

Drizzle with balsamic reduction, over the vegetables and serve.
