Рецепт Maple Roasted Vegetables
Maple Roasted Vegetables
Here’s another delicious fall recipe from the North Carolina Sweet Potato Commission. Not only are sweet potatoes delicious, they are also low in calories and full of vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants. Using them in a roasted vegetable medley with a dash of sweet maple syrup is a great way to revel in the flavors of fall without feeling guilty. This would make a wonderful Thanksgiving side dish, too!
Don’t have maple syrup on hand? Try agave, honey or sorghum instead! To healthy this up, replace butter with a buttery spread.
