Notes

Recipe Tips
  • Cutting Veggies - When cutting the vegetables, make sure that they are all approximately the same size so that the cook evenly when baking.
  • Stir Occasionally - Toss them when baking is not necessary but it does help them brown evenly and adds more flavor.
  • Don’t Overcrowd - Use two pans if needed for crisp veggies. We recommend placing potatoes and carrots in a single layer.
  • Baking Pan - For easy cleanup, place aluminum foil on sheet pan.
Variations Ideas
  • Garlic Herb - Melt garlic butter with fresh thyme, oregano and drizzle over the top right before serving.
  • Spicy Twist - Sprinkle with smoked paprika or crushed red pepper flakes for a delicious variation.
  • Honey Mustard - Toss with Dijon, chopped onion and honey before roasting. This is my husbands favorite!
  • Complete Meal - Add chicken thighs or sausage for a full dinner made all on the sheet pan.
  • Cheese - Right before serving sprinkle parmesan cheese or feta cheese for even more flavor.
  • Add other Vegetables - This simple side dish is perfect to add in more vegetables. Try it with sliced onions, broccoli and asparagus. Perfect addition to your family dinners and a must for Easter.
