Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 3 cups cauliflower florets
- 3 cups chopped carrots (cut into ¼-inch thick coins)
- 3 cups chopped summer squash (like zucchini and yellow squash)
Seasoning
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon seasoning blend
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) to prepare for roasting the vegetables.
- Prepare Vegetables: Chop all vegetables into suitable sizes as specified, ensuring even cooking. Stir together the seasoning blend separately.
- Season the Vegetables: In a large bowl or directly on a baking sheet, drizzle olive oil and the seasoning mixture evenly over the chopped vegetables. Toss well to evenly coat all pieces.
- Arrange for Roasting: Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
- Roast the Vegetables: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 45 to 60 minutes. Flip the vegetables once halfway through cooking to ensure even tenderness and browning.
- Manage Broccoli Browning: If the broccoli begins to brown too quickly, remove it from the pan temporarily and continue roasting the other vegetables. Return the broccoli to the pan for the last few minutes to reheat.
- Serve Warm: Remove from the oven and serve warm, optionally paired with Lemon Tahini Sauce or your favorite accompaniment.
Notes
- This recipe is an excellent way to enjoy a variety of colorful vegetables with minimal ingredients.
- Tossing the vegetables in olive oil and seasoning ensures a delicious, natural flavor that complements any meal.
- You can substitute or add other vegetables such as bell peppers, Brussels sprouts, or asparagus using the same roasting method.
- For crispier vegetables, spread them out without overcrowding on the baking sheet.
- If using an air fryer, reduce cooking time accordingly and monitor for tenderness.
