    Why This Recipe Works

    Raise your hand if you’re a veggie lover! I tell my boys that my parents were lucky because I have always loved vegetables. I can remember craving roasted Brussels sprouts and gorging on broccoli sprinkled with sea salt as a kid.

    My mom would prepare snack trays for me that involved steamed artichokes and marinated mushrooms. It’s safe to say that I’m a veggie fanatic to the core. My boys do not understand such craziness.

    Converting a non-veggie-lover into a veggie-lover is possible and if you are on this mission, ROASTED VEGGIES are the perfect place to start. Roasting vegetables gives them an enticing and flavorful crunch. They are a great side dish for literally any meal and they are appropriate any time of the year.

    Recipe Ingredients

    Brussels sprouts – Look for bright green heads that are firm and seem weighted. You want tightly packed leaves too.

    Carrots – Freshly peeled and cut carrots make great veggies in this mix.

    Broccoli florets – If you love broccoli, you can buy a full head and chop it up or buy a pre-cut bag to just grab a few to add to the mix.

    Leek – While they look like a larger green onion and are in the same family, you want to grab a firm white trunk and have more white and light green than actual green leaves showing. Also, avoid yellowing. They should be firm as a white onion.

    How To Make Roasted Vegetables

    Step 1

    Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet or sheet pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Add 1 pound of Brussels sprouts, 4 large peeled and quartered carrots, 1 pound broccoli florets, 1 sliced leek, 4 cloves minced garlic and 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley in an even layer.

    Drizzle 1/4 cup of olive oil evenly over the tops of the veggies. Toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

    Step 2

    Bake in the preheated oven for anywhere from 30 minutes to 40 minutes, stirring the veggies once after about 20 minutes of cooking. Serve immediately!

    Recipe Notes

    • There are many different types of veggies that roast well. Brussels sprouts, carrots, onions, mushrooms, zucchini, cauliflower, broccoli, yellow onion, red onion, squash, bell peppers, potatoes, sweet potatoes, leeks, butternut squash, really any root vegetables and tomatoes just to name a few.
    • If you roast tomatoes, make a hearty batch of Instant Pot Spaghetti Sauce or toss some of your Roasted Vegetables in to a soup, stew or chili! Ahhh perfection!
    • Replace the olive oil with coconut, vegetable or sesame oil for a different flavor.
    • Go crazy with herbs and spices, if you’d like! Italian seasoning, cumin, cayenne pepper, oregano or basil are great dried seasonings to sprinkle over the top. If you have fresh herbs on hand, basil, chives and thyme are all delicious when sprinkled over vegetables before roasting! I almost forgot balsamic vinegar – drizzle this over your veggies for a final touch. Perfection!

    What to Do With Vegetables

    If you roast a huge pan of veggies and you’re looking for recipes to serve with them or ideas about how to use them up, here are just a few nuggets for you!

    • Serve alongside a Rotisserie chicken for a super simple and easy meal.
    • Store in the fridge for easy sides, snacks and lunches throughout the week. Roasted veggies are the PERFECT meal prep recipe!
    • Throw them onto your next homemade pizza! YUM!
    • Toss them with your next salad for an extra punch of nutritious crunch.
    • I love roasted veggies when added to a bowl of Ramen noodles! This completely transforms an otherwise kinda boring meal into a dish packed with color and flavor.
    • Throw them into your next breakfast skillet!
    • This is one of my absolute favorite things to do with any leftover veggies.. add them to your next batch of spaghetti sauce. SO GOOD.
    • Really, though, they taste great alongside any chicken or beef dish. Serve them with these super easy Instant Pot Chicken Breasts for a quick and healthy meal!

    FAQ About Vegetables

    How to store leftover roasted vegetables?

    Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for 5-7 days! Easy peasy!

    How to add flavor to vegetables?

    Check out these tips to learn how to add flavor to your next batch of veggies!

    What to do with frozen vegetables?

    Vegetables that have been roasted can definitely be frozen and used at a later date. Avoid freezing onions since they don’t freeze well, but most other veggies will do great in the freezer. Store in a sealed plastic freezer bag in a single layer (lie flat in the freezer) for up to 3 months. Allow them to thaw completely before reheating.

    How to reheat frozen vegetables?

    Veggies that have been roasted and then frozen are super easy to heat back up after thawing. Either microwave them in batches, as needed, or place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 250 degrees F for 10 to 15 minutes, or until heated through.
