Curried Roasted Vegetables
Developed by Cleveland Clinic Wellness Editors
Serve this delicious, satisfying dish — with its bright, bold colors and flavors — to impress family and friends. It will make you feel like you’ve taken a detour to India. While it’s not the Mediterranean, the style of eating is the same — lots of fresh vegetables and healthy spices. The butternut squash and sweet potato are bursting with beta-carotene, the vegetable-derived form of vitamin A. Turmeric, in the curry powder, is recognized for its anti-inflammatory properties.
