Why This Recipe Works

Roasting vegetables isn’t rocket science, but most people mess it up.

This medley nails it because:

• Garlic and herbs are the dynamic duo of flavor. No bland veggies allowed.
• High heat = caramelization. Translation: crispy, golden perfection.
• It’s stupidly versatile.
  

  Swap veggies, herbs, or even add cheese if you’re feeling fancy.

• Leftovers taste even better. Meal prep win.

Ingredients

• 3 cups mixed vegetables (e.g., carrots, bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli)

• 3 tbsp olive oil

• 4 garlic cloves, minced

• 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped

• 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves

• 1 tsp salt

• ½ tsp black pepper

• 1 tsp paprika (optional, for smokiness)

• Grated Parmesan (optional, for serving)

Step-by-Step Instructions

• Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). No cheating—this heat is key.
• Chop veggies into even-sized pieces. Uneven cuts = uneven cooking. Don’t sabotage yourself.
• Toss veggies with olive oil, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper. Use your hands—it’s therapeutic.
• Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer. Crowding = steaming. We’re not making soup.
• Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until edges are crispy.
• Optional: Sprinkle with Parmesan right after baking. Because cheese makes everything better.

Storage Instructions

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Reheat in the oven or air fryer to keep the crispiness. Microwaving is allowed but frowned upon—you’ve been warned.

FAQs

Can I use frozen vegetables?

Technically yes, but they’ll be soggier. Thaw and pat dry first. IMO, fresh is worth it.

What if I don’t have fresh herbs?

Use dried herbs (1 tsp each), but fresh herbs make this shine.
