Garlicky Roasted Vegetables
6 carrots, peeled and quartered
6 parsnips, peeled and quartered
6 shallots, peeled and halved
2 medium onions, peeled and cut into 6-8 wedges
1 large garlic bulb, broken into cloves and peeled
1 tbs dried rosemary, or 3 tbs fresh, chopped
1 tbs dried thyme, or 3 tbs fresh
4 tbs olive oil
Directions
Oven: Preheat oven to 400ºF. Combine all the vegetables in roasting pan, drizzle with oil and stir to coat. Roast for about 1 hour 20 minutes or until tender. Salt and pepper to taste. Great with meat, chicken and fish.
BBQ: Turn barbeque to medium. Combine all the vegetables into a tinfoil bag, drizzle with olive oil and stir to coat. Roast for about 30 minutes or until tender. Salt and pepper to taste. Great with meat, chicken and fish.
I enjoy this recipe because it tastes very good when done on the BBQ. The garlic provides good immune system boosting ingredients, and the olive oil is a great source of healthy fats, which serve to stimulate testosterone production. The spices of thyme and rosemary offset the smell of the garlic, which also goes a long way to reducing "garlic breath."
