Adding veggies to lunch is quick! I popped these in the oven while I got the rest of my meal together (hummus and quinoa tabbouleh).
It’s Mediterranean week in the Bevil house......when I meal plan for the week I stick with a region, similar flavors so less waste..... and this is a must have all the time!

It's a great time of year. I mean, who doesn't like Spring? The weather starts to warm up - then drops to frigid temperatures again crushing all hope of an early summer - only to sneak back up to the mid-seventies for a hot second before dropping back down, dragging our morale along with it.

This is your basic, go-to method for roasting up some veggies with a lot of flavor in the easiest way possible. You can use this recipe for any and all veggies - get creative here. Think outside the root vegetable category. I roast everything from tomatoes and onions to mushrooms and bell peppers.
