ROOT VEGGIES

⭐️ Chop the vegetables into a uniform dice of about 1" ⭐️ Pick you skin peeling battles. I prefer to peel carrots and parsnips because their skins are particularly woody, while leaving the skin on potatoes. ⭐️ Give ’em plenty of space! Crowding results in steaming, not roasting.

⭐️ Chop and season the vegetables in the morning then marinate in a mixing bowl in the fridge. Pop them into the oven as soon as the turkey comes out, and let them roast while the turkey rests. They’ll get doubly infused with flavor, and you’ll have one less thing to do.
