Oven-Roasted Mediterranean Vegetable Medley for Dinner

Ingredients

- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 2 large carrots, peeled and sliced
- 1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
- 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
- 1 small winter squash, peeled, seeded, and cubed
- 1 medium eggplant, cubed
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 bell peppers (any color), sliced

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and let it heat fully before placing the vegetables inside.

2. Prepare the Vegetables:
Clean, peel, and chop the carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, winter squash, eggplant, Brussels sprouts, and bell peppers as noted in the ingredient list.

3. Mix the Vegetables:
In a large mixing bowl, combine all the prepared vegetables. Add the olive oil, salt, and freshly ground pepper. Toss until all vegetables are evenly coated.

4. Arrange on Baking Sheet:
Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on a large baking sheet in a single layer to ensure even roasting.

5. Roast the Vegetables:
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast for approximately 30 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time to achieve even browning and tenderness. Vegetables should be golden-brown and slightly crispy at the edges.

6. Check for Doneness:
Piercing the vegetables with a fork should be easy. If needed, roast for an additional 5-10 minutes for a deeper caramelization.

7. Serve:
Once cooked to preference, remove from oven and let them cool slightly. Transfer to a serving platter or individual plates, ready to be enjoyed as a delicious dinner.
