Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a baking stone in the oven while preheating to ensure it's hot when you add the vegetables.
Wash and dry all the vegetables. Peel the baby carrots if needed, and cut the red potatoes into 1-inch chunks.
Trim the broccoli florets, slice the zucchini into thick rounds, and dice the red bell pepper into large bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper.
Add all the prepared vegetables to the mixing bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Carefully remove the hot baking stone from the oven and arrange the vegetables in an even layer on the surface. Be cautious, as the stone will be very hot.
Place the baking stone with the vegetables in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove the vegetables from the oven once they are tender and slightly caramelized on the edges.
Drizzle the roasted vegetables with freshly squeezed lemon juice and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for added flavor and freshness.
Serve the vegetables hot as a delicious and healthy side dish for your Sunday dinner.
