Roasted Root Vegetables

Root vegetables grow underground and absorb a great amount of nutrients from the soil. Therefore it’s important to buy organic, especially when leaving the skin on. Parsnips, carrots, and parsley are all in the same family and packed with important nutrients. Sweet potatoes are anti-inflammatory and remarkably high in Vitamin A.
