Maple Roasting Vegetables

What is it?

Root vegetables come pre-cut and coated in a maple glaze, ready for the oven. It’s a frozen tray mix rather than a full meal, with pieces that usually roast up from the centre out, softening inside while the edges take on some colour. Sainsbury’s uses the same freezer-friendly format as its other vegetable side dishes, but here the focus is on sweetened roots instead of plain roast veg. Expect a mix built for baking straight from frozen, with the glaze coating the vegetables rather than sitting as a separate sauce.
