This recipe is a riff off my Roasted Root Vegetables Recipe, which is probably our most made meal!  I decided to mix it up and cook the veggies in the Instant Pot instead of in the oven.  The result was heavenly.  The sauce is light, sweet, and slightly acidic, which is fantastic with the hearty roots.
