Garlic Herb Roasted Vegetables
This Garlic Herb Roasted Vegetables recipe features a colorful mix of red onion, carrots, broccoli, yellow squash, zucchini, and red bell pepper, all tossed in a seasoned avocado oil blend. Roasted at a high temperature, the vegetables develop tender textures with a subtle garlic aroma and herb-infused seasoning. This preparation makes a versatile side dish that complements a variety of entrees while offering a balance of earthiness and mild sweetness.
Ingredients
- 1 large red onion sliced
- 3 large carrot chopped
- 2 crowns broccoli chopped into florets
- 2 medium-sized yellow squash chopped
- 1 zucchini chopped
- 1 red bell pepper cut into match sticks
- 6 Tbsp avocado oil divided
- 1 Tbsp dried herbs of choice
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt to taste, sea salt
- 4 large cloves garlic finely minced, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Mix 4 tablespoons of the avocado oil with the dried herbs, garlic powder and sea salt until well-combined.
- Chop the vegetables and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the avocado oil-herb mixture over the vegetables and toss until the vegetables are well coated in oil and seasoning.
- Spread the vegetables evenly over two large baking sheets, keeping the vegetables in a single layer (it’s okay if they overlap a little bit, but for best results, avoid them stacking on top of each other).
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- While the vegetables are roasting, stir together the remaining two tablespoons of avocado oil with the garlic. Pour half of this mixture over each baking sheet and give the vegetables a stir.
- Put the vegetables back into the oven and bake another 8 to 10 minutes, or until veggies reach desired done-ness.
- Serve with your choice of entree and enjoy!
- Note: if after the first 20 minutes, the broccoli is looking a bit charred, pull just the broccoli off of the baking sheet and re-incorporate it into the roasted veggies after they have finished baking.
Notes
- Choose vegetables with similar roasting times for even cooking and adjust the quantity to 6 to 8 cups depending on needs.
- Use a combination of herbs such as basil, parsley, and oregano, or Italian seasoning, to customize flavor.
