Roasted veggies
Different variations of roasted veggies.
Use any veggie you want, clean and dice. -I also dice onions and chopped garlic and add to the veggies.
-Place on baking sheet.
-Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning or Mrs. Dash.
-You can also use any fresh herbs you would like. I use a rosemary blend as well.
-Drizzle with olive oil and toss.
-Bake at 425 for about 20-30 minutes.
**I usually toss my veggies after cooking for about 10-15 minutes**
