Ingredients
  

2 cups butternut squash, peeled and cubed

2 cups Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

2 cups carrots, sliced

1 large red onion, cut into wedges

3 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed butternut squash, halved Brussels sprouts, sliced carrots, and red onion wedges.

      Make the Glaze: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

        Combine and Coat: Pour the glaze over the vegetables and toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.

          Roast the Vegetables: Spread the coated vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and caramelized at the edges.

            Add the Pecans (Optional): If using pecans, sprinkle them over the vegetables during the last 10 minutes of roasting to toast them slightly.

              Garnish and Serve: Once done roasting, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
