All the Vegetables | Dinner Roast
A fail-safe recipe that works for any meal, and snacks, any time of year. Choose your favorite vegetables, be inspired by the season and your location, try different spices or sauces - eat a medley as a meal or work it into your meal along with other sides, mains, soups, etc.!
INGREDIENTS:
Vegetables! Anywhere from one (1) to all that your oven will hold. Consider: Broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, beets, acorn squash, butternut squash, kabocha squash, plantain, sweet potato, yam, zucchini, tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, kale, collard greens, leeks, carrots, you get the idea.
Olive oil, avocado oil (which has a higher smoke point), or coconut oil.
Sea salt and pepper.
Any other spices you like.
DIRECTIONS:
Pre-heat oven to 350-425. Higher temps require more checking on veggies but will cook them faster and with more crispy edges.
Chop all vegetables to roughly the same size. No need to skin squashes, nor peel carrots or broccoli.
Add oil and seasoning to baking sheets. (Just enough to cover all surface area.)
Consider seasoning different baking sheets with different spices, if you have multiple.
Scatter vegetables on sheets so that each piece has it’s own area to cook. Piling veggies will steam them, rather than bake.
Pop in the oven. Check every 15 minutes or so until done.
Eat immediately, or allow to cool and turn into meals for future days.
