½ small yellow onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cubed
1 large Russet potato, scrubbed and chopped
1 large carrot, peeled and chopped

1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
Roasted pepitas, for topping
