Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 3 medium potatoes, diced
- 2 large carrots, sliced
- 2 medium zucchinis, sliced
Seasonings and Oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat Oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
- Prepare Vegetables. In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes, sliced carrots, and zucchini. Add olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Toss everything thoroughly until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- Roast Vegetables. Spread the vegetable mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Place in the preheated oven and roast for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through to promote even browning and to ensure all vegetables cook until tender and golden brown.
- Garnish and Serve. Once roasted, remove from the oven and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the vegetables for a fresh, vibrant finish. Serve warm as a delicious side dish.
Notes
- For crisper vegetables, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet and spread them out in a single layer.
- You can substitute fresh thyme and rosemary for dried if available; use 1 tablespoon each of fresh herbs instead of 1 teaspoon dried.
- Feel free to add other root vegetables like parsnips or sweet potatoes for variety.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to help with easy cleanup.
- Adjust the roasting time slightly if your vegetable pieces are larger or smaller than described.
