Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Carrots
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Zucchini
- 1 medium Red onion
- 1 pint Cherry tomatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and peel the carrots, then slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half.
Deseed and chop the red bell pepper into bite-size pieces.
Slice the zucchini into half moons roughly 1/2-inch thick.
Peel the red onion and chop it into wedges.
Place all the prepped vegetables, including cherry tomatoes, into a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss well to ensure all pieces are coated evenly.
Spread the vegetables out in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 30 to 35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish or on top of a bed of greens for a heart-healthy meal.
