It’s EXAM week!😅 I just keep thinking about how happy I will be next week haha! That is my motivation to get through this week👍🏼 But I did get a chance to make some root vegetables this weekend in between some studying😉 These are actually so good and a perfect way to transform some winter veggies. I added turmeric to the sauce to make it a warm and cozy side dish with some anti-inflammatory properties (because my stress level is high🙃)
