Total Time: 55 Minutes

Yields: 4 Servings

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, toss zucchini and tomatoes with a drizzle of olive oil and stir to coat. Stir in balsamic vinegar, and add a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper.
  2. Spread veggie mixture out onto a baking sheet. Roast at 375 degrees for 30-45 minutes, or until you’ve reached your desired doneness (30 minutes will give you a more crisp-tender texture, while 45 minutes will give you some caramelization on the tomatoes that I like)

Notes

Variations to try
  • Fresh herbs: after roasting, stir in 1-3 Tbsp of fresh basil or cilantro.
  • Dried herbs: add 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp oregano to the vegetables along with the salt and pepper.
  • More veggies: add 1 diced onion, or 1 diced bell pepper, or 8oz of halved button mushrooms (or any combination!) to the mixture.
  • Old Bay: add 1/4-1/2 tsp Old Bay seasoning to the vegetables before roasting.
