Lemon zest adds a bright touch too. Experiment with different spices to make it your own! To get crispy veggies, ensure they are well coated but not soggy. Use just enough oil to coat each piece lightly. Flip the veggies halfway through cooking for even crispness. If you want more crunch, roast them a little longer. {{image_4}} You can switch up the veggies based on what is fresh. In spring, use asparagus or snap peas. Summer is great for zucchini and cherry tomatoes. Fall brings butternut squash and Brussels sprouts. In winter, root veggies like sweet potatoes and parsnips shine.

You can also use nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor without dairy. Experimenting with cheese keeps the dish exciting. To make this dish vegan, skip the cheese. Use a vegan cheese alternative or simply leave it out. Add extra spices or herbs for flavor. A sprinkle of lemon juice brightens the dish. This way, you enjoy delicious veggies without dairy. To store your leftover roasted garlic Parmesan veggies, let them cool first. Place them in an airtight container. They will stay fresh for up to three days in the fridge. Make sure to keep them away from strong-smelling foods to avoid odor transfer. Reheating these veggies is simple. You can use an oven or a microwave. For the oven, preheat to 350°F (175°C). Spread the veggies on a baking sheet and heat for 10-15 minutes. This keeps them crispy. If you use a microwave, heat in 30-second intervals until warm, but this may make them a bit soft. To freeze your roasted veggies, let them cool completely. Place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. Remove as much air as possible. They can freeze well for up to three months. To defrost, move them to the fridge overnight before reheating. You can also heat them directly from frozen, but the texture might change. Roasted vegetables last about 3 to 5 days in the fridge. Store them in an airtight container. For best taste, eat them within this time. Check for any signs of spoilage before eating. If they look or smell off, it's best to toss them. Yes, you can use frozen vegetables, but fresh ones taste better. Frozen veggies often lose texture during cooking. If you use frozen, don’t thaw them first. This will help keep them crisp. Adjust roasting time to ensure they cook through. These veggies pair well with many dishes. Try serving them with grilled chicken or fish. They also complement pasta or quinoa nicely. For a simple meal, serve them over rice. Add a light salad for a balanced plate. Absolutely! You can add red pepper flakes for heat. Start with a small amount and taste as you go. If you want more, increase it slowly. You can also mix in some chopped jalapeños for a fresh kick. Roasting vegetables is simple and fun. You learned the perfect mix of veggies, cheese, and spices.

Ingredients
  

2 cups broccoli florets

2 cups cauliflower florets

1 cup baby carrots, halved

1 cup bell peppers, sliced (any vibrant color)

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

6 cloves of garlic, finely minced

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon sea salt

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting.

    In a large mixing bowl, add the broccoli florets, cauliflower florets, halved baby carrots, and sliced bell peppers. Gently toss to mix the vegetables.

      In a separate small bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, extra virgin olive oil, dried oregano, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper until the mixture is well blended.

        Drizzle the garlic mixture over the mixed vegetables and toss thoroughly, ensuring each piece is evenly coated with the aromatic oil.

          Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup, and spread the coated vegetables in a single even layer across the sheet.

            Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to develop and the veggies to crisp up slightly.

              After 20 minutes, carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Evenly sprinkle the freshly grated Parmesan cheese over the roasted vegetables.

                Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are fork-tender and the cheese has melted to a beautiful golden, bubbly finish.

                  Once roasting is complete, remove the vegetables from the oven, and if desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
