Roasted vegetables are my favorite and I can not resist my carbohydrates either. These small potatoes paired with the baby carrots and green beans come together easily and require minimal chopping (just the garlic!).
The pumpkin seed vinaigrette is super simple, but adds a little sweetness by pairing this delicious nutty and robust Pumpkin Seed Oil from NOW Foods with a little of their maple syrup and some balsamic vinegar. I seriously love all their oils and have a hard time choosing a favorite, but I thought I’d showcase one you might not be as familiar with.
I encourage you to check out all the fabulous cooking oils that NOW Foods carries, however you can still make this dish with whatever oil you chose or have on hand.
Pumpkin seed oil is organic and a good source of monounsaturated fatty acids- good for your heart! It goes great in a salad dressing, over veggies or as a dip for bread.
NOW Foods carries a wide range of oils, including those for cooking, essential oils and carrier oils (remember when I talked about those in this post?). Some of my other most commonly used oils are their liquid coconut oil, their organic olive oil, the avocado oil and these flavored coconut oils.

These veggies look great! I’ve never tried using anything other than olive oil to roast our veggies so I need to give it a go!
