Ingredients
Vegetables
- carrots cut into sticks
- cauliflower into bite-size pieces
- asparagus trimmed
- cherry tomatoes whole
- broccoli into bite-size pieces
- Brussels sprouts halved, trimmed stems & remove wilted leaves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Carrots & Cauliflower
- Season with 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½-1 teaspoon of oregano.
- Roast carrots for 10 minutes. Add cauliflower and roast combined veggies for 30 more minutes.
Asparagus & Cherry Tomatoes
- Season with 4-6 cloves of garlic (peeled and chopped), 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil, and salt to taste.
- Roast the asparagus and cherry tomatoes together on a baking sheet for 15-20 minutes.
Broccoli
- Season with 4-6 cloves of garlic (peeled and minced), 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil, and salt to taste.
- Roast the broccoli for 25-30 minutes on a baking sheet.
Brussels Sprouts
- Season with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of black pepper.
- Roast for 30-40 minutes on a baking sheet.
Notes
- The broccoli and Brussels sprouts recipes are very simple, but that’s the beauty of it. Try similar recipes with single ingredient vegetables, and don't be afraid to change it up.
- Other seasoning ideas: balsamic vinegar, rosemary + thyme, or lemon juice.
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
