Roasted Vegetables

Cooks' Note

If you let these vegetables come to room temperature, make a vinaigrette of 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and 1 tablespoon water. Mix it well and pour it over the roasted vegetables, and you’ll have a dish so delicious it will make portion control a difficult task.

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Grease a large, shallow baking pan.
