Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Peel and cut the carrots into thin sticks. Chop the red bell peppers and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. Peel and cut the red onion into wedges.
Combine the chopped carrots, red bell peppers, zucchini, red onion, and cherry tomatoes in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the balsamic glaze over the vegetables in the mixing bowl. Toss thoroughly to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated.
Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, tossing halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized at the edges.
Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy them as a wholesome plant-based main course.
