Ingredients

• 5 cups Mixed vegetables (e.g., carrots, bell peppers, zucchini, red onions, and cherry tomatoes)
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash and chop the mixed vegetables. For the best roasting, aim for uniform pieces: slicing carrots into sticks, chopping bell peppers and zucchini into cubes, cutting red onions into wedges, and leaving cherry tomatoes whole.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped vegetables with olive oil, kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, dried oregano, and dried thyme. Toss well to ensure an even coating.

Step 4

Spread the vegetables evenly on a large baking sheet in a single layer. Crowding the veggies will cause them to steam rather than roast.

Step 5

Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting and caramelization.

Step 6

For an extra savory note, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the vegetables during the last 5 minutes of roasting, if desired.

Step 7

Once the vegetables are tender and slightly browned around the edges, remove them from the oven.

Step 8

Transfer the roasted vegetables to a serving platter or bowl. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness, if desired.

Step 9

Serve hot as a delicious side dish to complement your main course or as a wholesome topping for grains or salads.
