Roasted vegetables...

...the perfect wintertime comfort food and, luckily for me, my family agrees!

Sometimes I serve them with a side of meat and potatoes, and sometimes they're spooned over angel hair pasta, but however they're served, they are oh-so-good!!


I like to use a wide variety of vegetables... My favorites are green and red peppers, mushrooms (baby bella and white), onions, zuchini, yellow squash, plum tomatoes, brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes, and baby (new) potatoes...


All of the vegetables get washed and cut up (a recent post by Tracey, Notes from a Cottage Industry, encouraged me to revisit the dreaded brussel sprouts of my childhood - and they are actually very good when roasted!!) ...


.. but I leave the baby/new potatoes whole because they're so small...


Everything gets tossed with a bit of olive oil and spices ....


...and then spread evenly on cookie sheets (I usually make 3 cookie sheets at a time because I like lots of leftovers for meals during the week)... Easy breezy - off they go into a 400 degree oven for 1 hour and...
...voila!!!! Yummy in the tummy!!!
