Ingredients

• 4 medium Carrots
• 2 large Zucchini
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium Red onion
• 1 pint Cherry tomatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash and dry all the vegetables. Peel the carrots and slice them diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces.

Step 3

Cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds. If the zucchini is very large, halve the rounds to make half-moons.

Step 4

Deseed the red and yellow bell peppers and cut them into 1-inch squares.

Step 5

Peel and cut the red onion into thick wedges, about 1-inch wide.

Step 6

Leave the cherry tomatoes whole, as they will roast beautifully intact.

Step 7

Place all the prepped vegetables onto the baking sheet in an even layer.

Step 8

Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables. Sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 9

Using your hands or a spatula, toss the vegetables until they are evenly coated with the seasoning and oil.

Step 10

Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized at the edges.

Step 11

Remove the vegetables from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter.

Step 12

Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness. Serve warm and enjoy!
