Ingredients
- 1 lb baby Yukon Gold or red potatoes, cut into bite-sized chunks
- 3 large carrots, sliced on the bias
- 2 medium zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Optional: 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash and prep all vegetables: chop potatoes, carrots, and zucchini into evenly sized pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the vegetables with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd.
- Roast for 25–30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and golden around the edges.
- Optional: Sprinkle with lemon zest and additional parsley before serving. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Garnish with parsley, chives, flaky salt, or lemon juice for extra freshness and flavor.
- Pairs well with grilled meats, eggs, or vegetarian mains like tofu or lentil loaf.
- Serve in rustic bowls or arrange in rows on a platter for beautiful presentation.
- Refrigerate leftovers up to 4 days in an airtight container.
- Freeze if needed—spread on a baking sheet first, then store in freezer bags for up to 2 months.
- Reheat in a 400°F oven for 10–12 minutes; broil briefly to revive caramelized edges.
- Use dried herbs if fresh aren’t available—reduce to 1 teaspoon each.
- Peeling vegetables is optional; scrub well if leaving skins on.
- Try adding other veggies like red onions, sweet potatoes, or bell peppers.
- Add zucchini halfway through roasting to keep it from getting soggy.
