Thanksgiving Roasted Root Veggies image

This simple recipe for roasted vegetables came to The Times from Dr. Andrew Weil, the popular alternative health physician. It's ridiculously easy, and so versatile. Choose a single vegetable or a combination of potatoes, carrots, parsnips, turnips, rutabagas, beets or sweet potatoes. Cut, then toss with olive oil and paprika or chili powder. Roast until tender and brown. Twenty minutes before they're done, toss several garlic cloves into the pan. The garlic will infuse the surrounding vegetables with flavor, and you can spread the softened cloves on bread.
