Ingredients
  

1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 medium bell pepper (any color), diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 medium red onion, cut into wedges

2 cups broccoli florets

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup olive oil

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Zest of 1 lemon

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Veggies: In a large mixing bowl, combine zucchini, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and broccoli florets.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, oregano, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper until well mixed.

        Toss the Veggies: Pour the dressing over the mixed vegetables and toss until they are all evenly coated with the mixture.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated veggies in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are not overcrowded to ensure roasting rather than steaming.

            Roast the Veggies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the veggies are golden brown and tender.

              Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove the veggies from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve warm as a delicious side dish or a hearty topping for grains like quinoa or rice.
