A warming dish. Baked root vegetables with Christmas spices and almond butter

I wrote many times about about how important it is to take care of your diet during the winter. HERE (post about stress and resistance)

Root vegetables include: carrots, parsley, red beets, celery, and parsnips.

They are an irreplaceable source of vitamins and minerals during winter. They care about our health and immunity, which is especially needed during this period. In addition, they are cheap vegetables and easily available all year long.

Today on a plate carrots and parsnips:

Carrots, the most popular root vegetable. It is an invaluable source of beta – carotene, it provides vitamins B6, D, H, E, K, PR. It contains carbohydrates, essential oils, flavonoids, lecithin, enzymes and fiber. It contains calcium, potassium, iron, copper, phosphorus and iodine.

Parsnip, similar and often confused with parsley, contains vit. A, B1, B2, B6, C and K.

Time to sprinkle the vegetables with warming christmas spices and add valuable almond butter for taste and health 🙂

Ingredients:

  • 3 – 4 carrots
  • 1 large parsnip or parsley root
  • 1 tablespoon of coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon of christmas spices (I always have mainly cinnamon)
  • a jar of almond butter

Preparation:

Peel and cut the vegetables , using a special brush for the dishes add coconut oil, and then sprinkled with spices.

Warm up the oven and bake the vegetables in 180 degrees on the highest shelf in the oven for about 25 minutes.

Finally, place it in a bowl and dip in almond butter.

Yummy!
