Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 large white onion , diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger , sliced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 pound carrots , peeled and coarsely chopped
  • 4 whole garlic cloves
  • ½ pound sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 1 cup coconut milk , (can be subbed for almond milk)
  • 2 cups vegetable or chicken broth

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 ℉.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and evenly disperse the carrots, garlic, and sweet potatoes on top. Drizzle with olive oil and place in the oven to roast for one hour, flipping halfway. Set aside.
