Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized Zucchini
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 1 small Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and dry all vegetables. Slice the zucchini into half-moons, the red bell pepper into strips, and the red onion into thin wedges. Cut the broccoli into small florets.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, bell pepper, broccoli florets, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper over the veggies. Toss again to ensure an even coating of spices.
Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized around the edges.
Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
Drizzle with fresh lemon juice and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Enjoy as a healthy side dish or a light, guilt-free main course!
