Roasted Squash & Veggies

Perfect meal for a cool autumn evening. The warmth of the oven and the smell of the roasting veggies makes for a cozy home. I like to make this recipe when I've just been to the market, and have a fridge full of fresh veggies. Choose a colorful variety of squash, beets, peppers, etc.

Roasted Squash & Veggies
1 beet - peeled and chopped (if you have time pre-boil the beets for 10 mins)
1 squash - peeled and chopped (if you don't have time to peel, than just cut into chunks and cut off peel as you eat)
1 pepper - chopped
1 leek - chopped
1 tomato - chopped
1-2 tsp cumin
1-2 tsp rosemary
pinch saffron
1 tbsp olive oil
1/4 water

Preheat oven 350º. Mix ingredients together. Place in baking dish. Bake for 30 mins covered, mix and bake 30 mins uncovered.

Serve with a grain (quinoa, couscous, rice, etc) and side dish of your choice. Bon appétit!
