Simple Roasted Vegetables

Simple Roasted Vegetables

Vegetables are an important part of a healthy, balanced diet. You won’t find a recipe that as simple and delicious as this one for roasted vegetables. It’s a classic!

I like to leave the root veggies undisturbed when adding the green beans, so that they have one really nicely charred side to them at the end of the cook time. The onions become mouthwatering tender.

Feel free to use other veggies, such as sweet potato, beets, cauliflower, or bell peppers.
