Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups cauliflower florets
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 large bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 medium red onion, chopped
  • 2 cups baby carrots
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. This temperature ensures vegetables roast quickly while developing those desirable caramelized edges without burning.
  2. Combine all chopped vegetables in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss everything together until every piece is evenly coated with oil for consistent cooking.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, paprika, black pepper, and sea salt. Sprinkle this aromatic blend over your vegetable mixture and toss thoroughly until all pieces are seasoned.
  4. Divide the vegetables evenly between your two prepared baking sheets, spreading them in a single layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until edges are golden brown and vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork. This cozy roasted veggie side recipe develops its signature caramelization during this crucial roasting phase.
  5. Remove from the oven and drizzle with balsamic vinegar while still hot, then sprinkle fresh parsley over top. Let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld beautifully.
