Sheet Pan: Roasted Vegetables 

Sheet Pan Roasted Vegetables are the ultimate healthy and delicious side dish. This recipe is an easy step by step to roasting vegetables to delicious perfection.

Roasted vegetables are the perfect sheet pan recipe. They can go with almost anything else you are making, and help check the box of adding something healthy for you and the family. A bonus is they make for perfect leftovers throughout the week. 

The combination of vegetables is endless. Sometimes it could be as simple as zucchini and onions and other times we like to cook with all the colors of the rainbow. Use whatever veggies you love to eat and it will always be a star weekday dish.

Here are a few vegetable combinations we love:

• Cherry tomatoes, zucchini and green onion
• Onions, smashed garlic, butternut squash and sweet potato
• Carrot, cauliflower, broccoli, peppers and onions

Our Tips for Delicious Sheet Pan: Roasted Vegetables

• When roasting vegetables, you want to cut them similarly so they cook evenly.
• Start by roasting the dense and heavy vegetables first, such as the carrots and sweet potato and then adding the softer vegetables like the zucchini and broccoli. If you were to throw in all the vegetables together you would end up with some vegetables that would be overcooked and others that are still raw. 
• While you are roasting, you may notice some of the vegetables are browning too much on one side, just move the sheet pan around so everything can bake evenly. 
• Allowing them to roast on a single layer ensures they cook perfectly.
