Ingredients

Units Scale

Root Vegetables:

  • 1 1/2 cups multi-colored carrots, peeled and chopped into 1-inch chunks (about 3 medium carrots)
  • 1 1/2 cups rutabaga, peeled and chopped into 1-inch chunks (about 1/2 of a medium rutabaga)*
  • 1 1/2 cups sweet potato, peeled and chopped into 1-inch chunks (about 1/2 of a medium sweet potato)*
  • 1 cup parsnips, peeled and chopped into 1-inch chunks (about 2 medium parsnips)

Glaze:

  • 2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon pure maple syrup (substitute coconut aminos for Whole30)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne (optional*)
  • Avocado oil cooking spray (or your cooking spray of choice)

Instructions

  1. Preheat air fryer at 400°F for 10 minutes. 
  2. While the air fryer preheats, add chopped carrots, rutabaga, sweet potato and parsnips to a large bowl.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together garlic-infused olive oil, chopped rosemary, maple syrup, salt, pepper, and cayenne (if using). Using a spatula, scrape the oil mixture into the bowl containing the root vegetables and stir with a spoon until evenly coated in oil and spices.
  4. Spray your preheated air fryer pan with cooking spray. Add root vegetables and shake the pan to spread them evenly. Cook for 24 minutes, tossing to redistribute in the pan every 8 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Rutabaga: According to Monash University's Low FODMAP Diet app, rutabaga is low FODMAP in servings of up to 1 cup per serving.
  • Sweet potato: low FODMAP in servings of up to 1/2 cup. Sweet potato contains the FODMAP mannitol, so if you malabsorb mannitol, be mindful of other foods you might consume with these vegetables containing the FODMAP mannitol to mitigate the risk of FODMAP stacking. The amount of sweet potato can also be reduced or another root vegetable substituted to further reduce this risk.
  • Cayenne: while generally believed to be low FODMAP in small quantities, cayenne pepper contains capsaicin, which can trigger symptoms in some people with IBS.
