Ingredients

• 4 medium carrots
• 2 medium zucchini
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash all vegetables thoroughly under cold water. Peel the carrots and trim the ends. Trim the ends of the zucchini, and core and seed the red bell pepper.

Step 3

Cut the carrots into 1/2-inch rounds, the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick slices, and the red bell pepper into strips. In a large bowl, combine carrots, zucchini, red bell pepper, and broccoli florets.

Step 4

Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables in the bowl. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss the vegetables well to ensure they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet, making sure they are spaced apart to promote even roasting.

Step 6

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 20–25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and have caramelized edges. Stir the vegetables halfway through the cooking time to promote even roasting.

Step 7

Remove the vegetables from the oven and transfer to a serving platter.

Step 8

Sprinkle the fresh thyme over the roasted vegetables for added aroma and flavor.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a side dish to complement your main paleo entrée.
