Autumn is the season for fresh root vegetables and squash of all kinds. After roasting, serve these beets, sweet potatoes, cipollini onions and butternut squash in separate mounds on the same serving platter. (If stirred together, the beets will color all of the other vegetables.) Season with lemon thyme for a little added zest.
Preheat oven to 375?F.
Pierce beets with a fork and toss them in a bowl with about 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with a generous amount of black pepper and salt. Seal each beet in foil, which helps retain moisture as they cook. (Alternatively, place beets in a baking dish with tight fitting lid.) Set wrapped beets on a cookie sheet or baking tray and place in the oven for about 55 minutes or until very soft when pierced through with a knife. Once cooked, allow beets to cool enough to peel. Cut into quarters, re-season with salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.
In a baking dish, place sweet potatoes and butternut squash cubes. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all cubes are well coated with oil. Place in the oven for about 1 hour or until soft when pierced with a knife, turning mixture once with a spoon half way through.
Toss onions in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with brown sugar and scatter thyme leaves over top. Place in a baking dish and cook in oven until very soft and slightly charred, about 50 minutes.
Arrange all roasted vegetables together on a serving platter.
