Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 1 yellow squash, sliced
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
For Roasting
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
To Garnish (Optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Prep the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Prepare the Vegetables: Chop the red and yellow bell peppers, slice the zucchini and yellow squash, and chop the red onion. Place all the vegetables and cherry tomatoes in a large mixing bowl.
- Season and Toss: Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, then add the minced garlic, dried thyme, oregano, basil, and a generous pinch of salt and black pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with oil and seasonings.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet. This ensures they roast rather than steam for optimal caramelization.
- Roast: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the veggies for 25–30 minutes. Stir halfway through to ensure even cooking. The vegetables should be tender and lightly charred at the edges when done.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired and serve warm as a side or over grains or pasta.
Notes
- Feel free to swap in other seasonal vegetables such as broccoli, carrots, or mushrooms.
- Adjust the herb seasoning to suit your taste or use fresh herbs for extra flavor.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and used in wraps, pasta, or as a topping for salads.
- For extra crispness, avoid crowding the pan; use two sheets if needed.
