3 tablespoons mild olive oil
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons coarse salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage leaves
Freshly ground black pepper
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F, with 2 racks placed as close to the center of the oven as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the turnips, carrots, Brussels sprouts, shallots, beets, parsnips, and yams and toss to combine.
Drizzle them with the olive and canola oils, vinegar, salt, sage, and black pepper to taste and toss with a wooden spoon until the vegetables are evenly coated. If you like, you can add rosemary, thyme, onions and you can certainly substitute vegetables that you like better or have on hand.
