Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 3 cups cauliflower florets
- 3 medium carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 medium lemon
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut the broccoli and cauliflower into bite-sized florets, and slice the carrots into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Toss the vegetables until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the vegetables in an even layer on a large baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and beginning to brown at the edges.
While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the lemon dressing. Zest the lemon and set the zest aside, then juice the lemon into a small bowl. Add the chopped parsley.
Once the vegetables are done roasting, transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the lemon zest and sliced almonds over the top of the vegetables.
Drizzle the lemon juice and parsley mixture over the roasted vegetables.
Toss everything gently to combine and serve immediately.
