Roasted Veggie and Bacon Salad

This side dish requires only 7 simple ingredients and they are pretty easy to find - the Blacksburg Farmer's Market probably has all of them this time of year.  The seasoning that I used comes from Penzey's Spices...We served it alongside some slow-cooked beef and roasted spaghetti squash...

Roasted Veggie and Bacon Salad:

1 lb. chopped carrots
1 lb. chopped parsnips
6 strips thick-sliced bacon, chopped
1 chopped red onion
Salt/Pepper to taste
1 tsp. Bavarian Spice from Penzey's
1 TBSP sherry cooking wine

Cook bacon in a saute pan and reserve the fat.  Put all veggies and spice into a roasting pan and add some of the fat - toss well and roast in a 400 degree oven for 30 minutes.  Remove the veggies and toss with bacon and sherry.
