Ingredients
  

1 pound Brussels sprouts, halved

1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and black pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped)

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional, for extra depth)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the veggies: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts and cut carrots.

      Make the dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, pepper, thyme, and balsamic vinegar (if using) until well combined.

        Coat the vegetables: Pour the dressing over the Brussels sprouts and carrots. Toss them well to ensure everything is evenly coated.

          Spread on a baking sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Spread the coated Brussels sprouts and carrots in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.

            Roast in the oven: Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and caramelized. The Brussels sprouts should be slightly crispy, while the carrots are fork-tender.

              Garnish and serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve warm.
