Roasted Herbed Pumpkin and Harvest Vegetables Cooking Directions

Preheat oven to 450F (230C).

Cut pumpkin into quarters. (Microwaving on high for a couple of minutes makes this easier.) Peel, then scoop out and discard seeds. Cut into 1-inch- (2.5-cm-) thick wedges. Trim any brown parts from fennel, then core and slice into wedges.

Slice onion into thick rings. Place pumpkin and vegetables in a large bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk oil with seasonings. Pour over pumpkin and vegetables and toss to coat.

Spread mixture out in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast in centre of preheated oven until pumpkin and fennel are fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

You don't need to stir mixture while roasting. Wonderful with chicken and pork.
