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 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp seasoning* (mix of herbs/spices to preference)
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Chop all the vegetables as directed into florets and coins. Stir together your seasoning blend to prepare for the next step.
- Assemble: In a large bowl or directly on a baking sheet, drizzle the seasoning and olive oil over the chopped vegetables. Toss everything thoroughly to evenly coat each piece with oil and seasoning. Spread the veggies out in a single layer on a baking sheet to optimize roasting.
- Cook: Bake the vegetables in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes. Flip the vegetables once halfway through cooking to promote even roasting. If the broccoli starts browning too quickly, remove it temporarily to prevent burning. Continue roasting the other veggies until they are tender, then return the broccoli to the pan for the final few minutes to warm through. Serve warm, optionally with a lemon tahini sauce for added zest.
Notes
- Roasting vegetables brings out their natural sweetness and enhances their flavors.
- This light coating of olive oil and seasoning allows the vegetable’s natural flavors to shine and complements any additional herbs or sauces.
- You can swap in or add other vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or Brussels sprouts using this roasting method.
- If using broccoli, watch closely to avoid over-browning; remove and add back as needed.
- This recipe can be adapted for air fryer cooking; adjust time and temperature accordingly.
