The Ultimate Roast Veggies

Gluten free, vegan, sugar free

Serves: 8

Ingredients 

1 x medium size Jap (Kent) pumpkin (or root vegetables of choice)

3 tsp x whole seed spice mix (think fennel, coriander seeds, cumin, etc)

2 tbsp x fresh rosemary 

1/2 tsp x black pepper 

1 tsp x celtic or pink salt 

2 tbsp x melted coconut oil or olive oil 

1 tbsp x chives (optional)

Method 

1.Preheat oven to 180 degrees. 

2.Leaving the skin on and seeds attached (the skin and seeds are packed with nutrients/health benefits), slice into wedges that are about 2-3 inches thick. 

3. In a medium bowl, place the pumpkin, oil, spices and rosemary and mix well. 

4. Pour the pumpkin mixture onto a lined baking try (I prefer to use silicon as it is better for the environment and stops pumpkin from sticking). 

5. Bake for about 45 minutes or until a fork easily pushes into the pumpkin. 

6. Top with chopped chives.
