✨This is my go to recipe for roasted veggies and I’m delighted to share it with you, today!✨
Eat your veggies…
Easier said than done; right?
We know vegetables are loaded with the vitamins and nutrients that we need to nourish our bodies…but they take time to prepare…and…it’s not always easy to find the time.
If we’re being honest, vegetables aren’t crave-able like cakes, cookies, or pastas.
Canned veggies taste wet!…They have little flavor…and NOT as many nutrients as the fresh or even frozen veggies.
Steamed veggies are some of my favorites, they’re my quick favorite.
✨When I want roasted veggies that I can’t stop eating, I roast them! ✨
And that’s what we’re making today: Perfectly Roasted Veggies in less than an hour!

Let’s Get Back To Our Recipe!
We are going to make perfectly roasted vegetables, in less than an hour! 20 minutes to prepare and chop everything, 5 minutes to season, and 20-30 minutest to roast!
I’ve roasted many combinations of vegetables, but this one is my favorites! It’s also AIP compliant. It contains Brussel Sprouts, onions, portobello mushroom caps, butternut squash, olive oil, nutritional yeast, garlic, and salt.
The recipe for this dish is so simple it’s hardly a recipe at all!
No, I’m serious!
Wash the vegetables
Chop them
Toss with oil and seasonings in a bowl
Layer veggies in two sheet pans
Roast for 15 minutes
Turn Vegetables using a silicone spoon.
Return to the oven for ten minutes.
Remove the veggies from the oven, turn once more to allow the steam to escape.
I do have a few recommendations however. Just as it’s important to have the freshest natural ingredients, it’s important to have the right equipment.
Using at least two sheet pans for this recipe is essential! Use 3 if you have them.
While you can chop all the vegetables with a chef’s knife and cutting board, I recommend using a food processor if you have one. You can save a lot of time by chopping your onion and slicing your butternut squash with your food processor.
Don’t worry I’ll still give you a recipe so you can pin it for later.
For now, let’s get some ingredients & some equipment!

The First Time I Tried Roasted Vegetables…
I was almost 32 years old the first time I had roasted veggies, I was having dinner out a local bistro —they were great with my allergies—and I ordered roasted carrots. I had never had carrots like that before!
They were tender, warm, and sweet! They had just the right amount of char…I ordered them every time we went until they were out of season…
I figured it must be complicated…anything that delicious had to be complicated…right?
I was wrong! I’m so glad I was wrong.
Roasting veggies is easier than steaming them! The hardest part is the prep…
Break out your food processor…break out your cutting board and chef’s knife…let’s do this!
Helpful Tips For This Recipe
Once the veggies are chopped and seasoned, they roast for 15 minutes at 425, turn them, roast for 10 minutes more and done!
The biggest challenge you’ll have is choosing which veggies to roast each week. I’ve included some of the variations I’ve made in the photos for this blog post. My favorite combination is Brussel Sprouts, onion, portobello mushroom caps, and butternut squash. They have a great balance between the bitter, deep, and sweet flavors. They’re also AIP phase 1 approved.
When you enjoy this recipe you’ll wonder which bistro you’ve gone to. But it’ll be a lot lighter on your budget than if you ordered out! 😉
FAQ
Can I make this recipe without garlic, onion, or nutritional yeast?
Of course! The best recipe is the one that is safe for you. You should never cook with ingredients that are unsafe for you.
In this recipe garlic, onions, and nutritional yeast are seasonings. They do provide nutrients, but if you can’t have them, it’s best to omit them. You could always Break The Recipe and substitute with another safe seasoning!
How do you keep your roasted veggies crisp?
The secret is the temperature!! Roasting your veggies at 425 degrees Fahrenheit is key! Turning them after roasting for 15 minutes, releases lots of steam and keeps the veggies on the bottom of the sheet pan from steaming!
Starting with the butternut squash on top, allows it to evaporate moisture out of the sheet pan and not into the recipe. This is important since butternut squash it has the most moisture of all the vegetables in this recipe.
What other vegetables can you roast?
I’ve roasted zucchini, peppers, tomatoes, beets, celery, cauliflower, broccoli, sweet potatoes, and more! Change the vegetables, change the seasoning, Break The Recipe & make it your own!
