I like to add roasted root vegetables and hearty vegetables to my salads.  You can do this simply on a baking sheet by cutting up a variety of healthy foods like:

  • broccoli
  • cauliflower
  • carrots
  • beet roots
  • parsnips
  • rutabaga
  • sweet potato
  • potato
  • Brussel sprouts
  • celeriac (celery root)
  • onions

The recipe is simple:  preheat the oven to 400 degrees.  Fill a baking tray with veggies, toss with olive oil, sea salt, pepper, and your herbs of choice.  My favourites are thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.  Bake for 20-30 minutes and flip every 8 minutes or so.
