Herb Crusted Roasted Rutabaga

Ingredients:

  • 2 rutabagas
  • 2 table spoons olive oil
  • 1/2 table spoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh sage, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, minced
  • 3/4 teaspoon McCormack® Peppercorn Medley
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.


Directions:

Mince the herbs and set aside.  Peel, slice, and then cube into small pieces the rutabagas.  Place the cubes in a wide shallow bowl and toss with the olive oil.  When coated, add the herbs and toss again.

Spread on a metal baking sheet and bake for approximately 40-50 minutes.

Myrtle's Note:  I made just a fraction of the recipe since I was trying out two rutabaga recipes at the same time.   So, my first batch had a tad too much oil, 1 tablespoon for just half a rutabaga.  The photo below is actually just 1/4 a rutabaga and half of what I made.  I adjusted the proportions above to make 4-6 servings.


Yield:  4-6 servings.
