Roasted Vegetables

There are a lot of vegetables that I don't care for when they're cooked in the "traditional" way. You know what I mean...you think about asparagus and you automatically think "steamed". Yuck! But asparagus is delicious roasted. As are brussel sprouts, believe it or not. So next time you're in the supermarket and see some beautiful, fresh vegetables, think about roasting them. You can even defrost some frozen corn and roast that!

Roasted Vegetables

various vegetables, cut into similar sizes
olive oil
salt and pepper
dried thyme

Preheat oven to 425F. Place your veggies on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, then mix to coat all your veggies. Spread them out into a thin layer and sprinkle with the salt, pepper, and dried thyme. (I like thyme the best, but you can experiment with your seasonings!) Bake for 20-25 minutes until nicely roasted.
