This roasted vegetable side dish is sweet and delicious! Somehow I always forget how much I like beets. When a friend served this to us with roasted chicken we were hooked! The prep is a bit time consuming but well worth it. I wear latex gloves when handling beets, but if you don't mind temporary pink fingers, this is not...

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 425F. Spray a large sheet pan with cooking spray. Peel sweet potatoes and beets and cut into 1-inch dice.
- 2. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes, beets, olive oil, garlic powder, salt & pepper until well coated. Place on baking tray in a single layer and put in oven, roast for about 25 minutes.
- 3. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, melt the butter with the thyme, and allow the butter to brown over medium heat. This will take about 4-5 minutes. Take care not to let it get too dark. It should smell nutty, not burnt!
- 4. Stir in the maple syrup and remove the pan from the heat.
- 5. After 25 minutes, remove the tray from the oven, pour the browned butter glaze over the vegetables and toss them to combine.
- 6. Place the vegetables, (in single layer so they will brown, not steam) back in the oven for 10-15 minutes, then remove to a serving dish. Sprinkle with more chopped thyme if desired.
