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

- Garlic Tip: Add minced garlic in the last 10 minutes of roasting to prevent burning.
