Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Wash and halve the baby potatoes. Toss them with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Spread evenly on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, chop the zucchini, yellow squash, and red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and cut the spears into thirds.
After 15 minutes, take the potatoes out of the oven. Add the zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and minced garlic to the baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with the remaining salt and pepper. Toss well to coat, and return to the oven.
Roast the vegetables and potatoes for an additional 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden and tender, and the vegetables are slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables roast, chop the fresh parsley and basil. In a small bowl, combine the herbs with the lemon juice. Mix well to create a light herb sauce.
Once the roasting is complete, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drizzle the herb sauce over the potatoes and vegetables, and toss gently to combine.
Transfer the Potatoes Primavera to a serving dish and garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Serve warm and enjoy!
