Ingredients

For this recipe you will need some Mediterranean vegetables. I like to use peppers, zucchini, cherry tomatoes and red onions, but you can also use other veggies like broccoli, eggplant and garlic if you like.

Additionally, you will need olive oil and some seasoning. I use parsley, basil, garlic powder, salt and oregano - but you can also substitute these with a Mediterranean seasoning blend or other herbs.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 °F / 220 °C / 210 °C fan oven.

Dice and chop all the vegetables into similar sized chunks. Add them to a bowl, along with the other ingredients.

Stir until every vegetable piece is well coated in the oil and herbs. Transfer them to a baking sheet, and bake them in the oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until all the vegetables have softened and warmed through.

Serve the veggies immediately while they are still warm for the best results.

Top tips

Here are my best tips to succeed with this recipe:

• Use your favorite veggies! This recipe can be used to roast practically any vegetable out there. If you want to use potatoes or other root vegetables, you might want to parboil them first as they tend to need more time to cook through.
• As different ovens can cook at different temperatures, your vegetables might take slightly longer or shorter to roast than the estimated time. Keep an eye on them!

Serving suggestions

There's never a wrong time to serve Mediterranean roast vegetables. It's such a versatile and easy dish, it honestly goes with pretty much anything.

You can enjoy them as a side dish with air fryer tilapia, lemon butter cod, air fryer whole chicken, chicken spedini, smoked haddock and spinach risotto or walnut crusted chicken.

It's also excellent to serve with, or as an addition to pasta dishes. Try pasta salad with roasted vegetables, or add these to your minced beef pasta bake.

Variations

You can make this dish with so many variations! Try any of these ideas if you're looking to change things up, or to cater for your personal preferences.

• Add some chickpeas, butter beans or diced chicken to turn this dish into a sheet pan dinner
• Squeeze some lemon juice over the vegetables
• Add other vegetables such as carrots, green beans, eggplant, broccoli, cauliflower, olives or artichokes
• Grate some parmesan, or crumble some feta cheese over the top before serving
• Sprinkle freshly chopped herbs over the top before serving

Leftovers

Leftover roasted veggies can be stored in an airtight container in a refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can serve them cold in a salad, or reheat them in a microwave for a few minutes to use as a side dish in future meals.
