Roasted Butternut Squash and Sweet Potatoes

Hey Whiskers,
I love having fresh vegetables around for me to play around with flavor wise. I am a huge fan of squash and the inherent sweetness in the butternut squash and sweet potato, balance beautifully with spice. Now I would make this spicier but my family is still as Ashkenazi and white as you get. I love using shallots or purple onions as they carmelize beautifully in the oven but you can use any onion you have. It's a simple one bowl, and one pan recipe, full of summer deliciousness. Enjoy the summer deliciousness, keep whisking up love and happiness, till next time,
Samantha
