Bake at for about 30-45 minutes 30 Minutes, until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned. Turn vegetables several times during baking so that they cook evenly and are fork tender. Do not allow vegetables to become too browned, or they may become bitter. Enjoy this delicious medley comfortably sitting beside your turkey (I mean the dish)!
