This recipe is very tasty, but I'm giving it the fifth star because it's very forgiving. I made this the first couple of times only omitting the parsnips (they taste like carrots anyways, imo) and it was a big hit. I made this a few nights ago and instead of the turnips and parsnips, I added a raw carnival squash instead, cut into chunks. Still tasty!

I roasted the veggies too, in a little olive oil, then added the sauce. Used rutabaga instead of turnips (personal preference). I know I changed the recipe quite a bit (sorry), but I kept the sauce as is, and the dish was fabulous!!! My hubby skipped the meat to have seconds (and thirds). Definitely will make again and again.

This wasn't very popular this Christmas, but it may be because my family isn't used to some of the vegetables used. However, I saved all the leftovers and put them in my post-Christmas turkey soup, which was delicious.

I cooked this recipe differently than suggested, since I baked the veggies in the oven after mixing them with the other ingredients. As long as you don't overcook them, they are awesome! Thank you so much for such a versatile and popular (with my picky kids) recipe! I was asked to remake this as Christmas dinner, and accidentally overcooked it. People STILL loved it. Thanks!

This was so yummy. I only had parsnips, potatoes and brussel sprouts and I was craving roasted veggies so combined this recipe with another. I roasted the veggies (with red onions) tossed with olive oil for about an hour first. Then tossed them in the sauce. So good!

Easy preparation....I cleaned & chopped up the veggies,except for the bsprouts, Christmas Eve & put them in bags ready for the next day. As I already had a potato dish planned I didn't add the red potatoes... Next time I would make a little more sauce, but they were simply delicious and easy to prepare while the meat was sitting. Will try roasting them the next time with garlic & red onions. Delightful change from the typical holiday veggies. I also had 2 lbs of beans with lemon & almonds just in case someone didn't care for root veggies.
