Who says veggies can't be comforting?





Apparently I am a big fan of oven roasting, because this is also my favorite way to prepare vegetables. The come out so soft, so sweet, and caramelized. I LOVE them, and there are so many ways to prepare them. So here are my veggie oven roasting tips:


1. You can really roast just about any type of vegetable, even tomatoes (with garlic and basil, mmmm), but just be sure to combine veggies with the same firmness and that would combine well with each other. Root veggies, squash, peppers, mushrooms, and eggplant are some of my favorites.
2. Be sure to cut up all your veggies the same size so they all cook evenly.
3. Toss with olive oil, or butter, and favorite seasonings, even just salt and pepper will do. Rosemary, garlic and herbs, italian seasonings, pesto, even seasonings meant for meat.
4. Spread evenly over baking sheet and roast at 400 for 15-20 minutes, or until softened and browned. Time will often depend on the size you cut your veggies.
5. Eat them as a side dish, put in a sandwich or wrap with pesto, hummus or just mayo, you won't even miss your lunchmeat!
