Ingredients

  • one medium/large red bell pepper trimmed, seeded, and diced into 1-inch pieces
  • one extra-large carrot peeled and sliced into thin rounds
  • one medium/large orange or yellow bell pepper trimmed, seeded, and diced into 1-inch pieces
  • about 3 cups broccoli florets
  • half of one medium red onion sliced into 1-inch wedges
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons kosher salt or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
  • fresh parsley optional for garnishing (see Notes below for additional options and ideas)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425F and line a baking sheet with foil.
  2. To the baking sheet add the red peppers, carrots, orange or yellow peppers, broccoli, red onion; each in their own row.
  3. Evenly drizzle with olive oil, and evenly sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  4. Using your hands, gently toss the vegetables so that the oil, salt, and pepper are evenly distributed, taking care not to 'mess up' the rows if that's important to you.
  5. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until vegetables are crisp-tender and as done as desired; gently stir each row once during roasting to ensure even cooking.
  6. Optionally garnish with fresh parsley (or other Notes options) and serve immediately. Vegetables are best warm and fresh.

Notes

  • If you need some extra zip, add minced garlic, granulated onion, or Italian seasoning before roasting. Or before serving add pizzaz with fresh basil or mint. Try a finishing drizzle of balsamic vinegar or a light vinaigrette like this or this. A sprinkle of Parmesan cheese like I did here is always tasty too.
