Description
A collection of easy and delicious roasted vegetable recipes perfect for any meal.
Ingredients
- Assorted fresh vegetables (e.g., broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, bell peppers, onions, zucchini, sweet potatoes)
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Optional herbs and spices (e.g., garlic powder, onion powder, rosemary, thyme, paprika)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and chop the vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Ensure they are relatively uniform in size for even cooking.
- In a large bowl, toss the chopped vegetables with enough olive oil to lightly coat them.
- Season generously with salt and black pepper. Add any desired herbs and spices.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this will steam the vegetables instead of roasting them. Use multiple baking sheets if necessary.
- Roast for 20-40 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, flipping them halfway through. Cooking time will vary depending on the type and size of the vegetables.
- Serve hot as a side dish or as a main course.
Notes
- You can customize the vegetables based on seasonality and personal preference.
- For extra flavor, add a drizzle of balsamic glaze or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese after roasting.
- Experiment with different spice blends to create a variety of flavors.
