Roasted Root Vegetables with Walnut Pesto

This is yet another Cooking Light recipe that I love – Roasted Root Vegetables with Walnut Pesto.  I made this once when my aunt was over and made it again today.  OMG, that’s tasty!  Of course, I love anything that gives me an excuse to eat parsnips, turnips, onions, and shallots all at the same time.  It definitely gets 5 stars from me because I think it would be a tasty side dish for pretty much anything I make.

I made a batch today and Pete and I managed to eat the whole batch while we were waiting for the meatloaf to cook.  Now neither of us wants the meatloaf!  (It’s a Weight Watchers recipe that’s actually flavorful, unlike most of their recipes, and is somewhat of a staple for us.  However, since they don’t list their recipes online I can’t link to it.)
