Herb Roasted Veggies

After the twice baked potatoes, I got even more excited about uses for my garlic herb seasoning. With steak tips planned for the grill, and one of those perfect Maine summer days when you don't mid lighting the oven, I set myself to a veggie roast.
It doesn't get easier than this folks, and this combination is so bright and inviting to look at. In a 400 degree oven line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicon mat or parchment. Toss the selected veggies in some olive oil and spread them in an even layer on the pan. Sprinkle with the seasoning mix and bake. After 20 minutes give everything a toss and bake for another 20 to 30 minutes until everything is cooked tender.
For this rendition of my herb roasted veggies, I used grape tomatoes, onion, and broccoli because that's what was in the fridge, but mushrooms, eggplant, zucchini, carrots, radishes, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, bok choy, peppers: anything goes! Just let your imagination run wild, or clean out your fridge.
THE RECIPE:
Grape tomatoes
Potatoes, sweet onions, and broccoli all cut to approximately the same size
3T Olive oil to coat the veggies
3T of my garlic herb seasoning mix
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
Line the baking sheet with silicon mat or parchment
In a large bowl, toss the cut vegetables with the olive oil to coat
Spread the vegetables in as close to a single layer as possible
Sprinkle the seasoning on top and bake for 20 minutes or so.
With a spatula, carefully turn and toss veggies and spread them back out. (if using tomatoes be gently with them so they don't break).
bake for another 20 to 30 minutes. The time will depend on how big you cut your veggies, and which one you decided to use.
Look for some singing on tomatoes and broccoli and some golden highlights to the potatoes.
Don't want to light the oven? (We can't all live in Maine). Follow all the same steps, but use heavy duty aluminum foil to make an envelope for the veggies. Seal it tightly around the edges and set it on the grill (direct heat) for 10 minutes and then turn it over for another 10. If you have the room to set the packet off of direct heat, the cooking instructions are more in line with baking, 20 minuets per side should do. BE CAREFUL when you open the foil packet, it will be steamy!
