Notes

    • To ensure the sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts cook evenly, cut them into similar sizes.
    • It's best to use fresh vegetables (over frozen vegetables) for optimal flavor and texture. However, if you do use frozen, make sure to thaw them completely and pat them dry before roasting.
    • This dish is best served fresh from the oven, but you can do some prep work ahead of time by cutting and seasoning them. Store them in the fridge until you're ready to roast them.
    • This recipe is versatile and works well with other vegetables such as carrots, cauliflower, or broccoli.
    • Storage Tips - This dish will keep well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
