Ingredients

  • 4 medium zucchini quartered lengthwise and sliced
  • 2 cups baby tomatoes grape tomatoes or cherry tomatoes
  • 1 - 1 1/2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt or, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper or, to taste

Instructions

  • Combine. In a large bowl, toss zucchini and tomatoes with a drizzle of olive oil and stir to coat.
  • Season. Stir in balsamic vinegar, and add a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper.
  • Prep. Spread veggie mixture out onto a baking sheet, making sure that there's plenty of room to allow for good air circulation.
  • 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.
