Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini
• 2 medium yellow squash
• 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 1 medium red onion
• 3 cloves garlic
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
• 0.25 cup fresh basil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 cup parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil it to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Trim the ends off the zucchini and yellow squash, then slice them into half-moons about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 3

Cut the red bell pepper into bite-sized chunks, and slice the red onion into thin wedges. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, yellow squash, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, and garlic.

Step 5

Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables, then sprinkle with the dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the vegetables evenly with the oil and seasonings.

Step 6

Spread the vegetables out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even roasting. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 7

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 8

While the vegetables are roasting, roughly chop the fresh basil. If using parmesan cheese, grate it finely.

Step 9

Once roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the veggies cool for 2–3 minutes. Transfer them to a serving dish.

Step 10

Garnish the roasted vegetables with the chopped basil and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
