Yield 8-10 servings
I'm sure we could think of a more exotic name for the side dish, but, with the combination of many, many purple vegetables, this name is somehow fitting. Cram in even more, if you like!
Ingredients
1 bunch organic purple carrots, cleaned but unpeeled
3 purple sweet potatoes, peeled
1 bunch beets, cleaned, greens removed (and reserved for another time)
1 red onion, peeled and quartered
1 bag baby purple potatoes
1 head purple cauliflower
4 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Prep vegetables: remove tops from carrots, cut peeled sweet potatoes into quarters, peel and top beets and cut in half, and cut cauliflower into florets.
- Divide carrots, sweet potatoes, beets, red onions, baby potatoes and cauliflower florets between 2 roasting pans.
- Drizzle each pan with half of the salt and half of the olive oil and place in the oven to roast for 1 hour.
- Remove from the oven once everything is cooked, allow to cool slightly, then add to a blender* with an inch of water at the base and pulse until all ingredients are smooth.
Notes
Once vegetables are roasted, you can skip the pureeing and enjoy each vegetables separately as you like throughout the week!
