  • 1 large carrot, sliced into ½-inch diagonal pieces
  • 1 medium red onion, cut into ½-inch wide strips
  • ½ red bell pepper, sliced into ½-inch wide strips
  • ½ green bell pepper, sliced into ½-inch wide strips
  • ½ yellow bell pepper, sliced into ½-inch wide strips
  • 1 large beet root, peeled, quartered, and sliced into ½-inch pieces
  • ½ butternut squash, peeled, quartered, and sliced into 1-inch pieces
  • 8 Brussels sprouts, halved or left whole
  • 1 zucchini, sliced into ½-inch rounds

Dressing

  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar (or dark balsamic vinegar)
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or sherry vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (whole grain or regular)
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil, parsley, or cilantro
  • 5 garlic cloves, pressed
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

To Sprinkle on Top

  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt (plus more to taste)
  • More chopped herbs to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven – Set your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Prepare the Vegetables – Wash, dry, and chop all the vegetables into uniform pieces for even roasting. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
  • Make the Dressing – In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, white balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, thyme, basil, pressed garlic, black pepper, and salt.
  • Coat the Vegetables – Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss well to coat evenly.
  • Arrange on a Baking Sheet – Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet (use two sheets if necessary to avoid overcrowding).
  • Roast the Vegetables – Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  • Season and Serve – Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with additional salt, pepper, and fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra crispiness: Spread vegetables in an even layer and avoid excessive oil.
  • Garlic Tip: Add minced garlic in the last 10 minutes of roasting to prevent burning.
  • Customization: Swap in seasonal vegetables like asparagus, mushrooms, or sweet potatoes.
  • Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
