Roasted Veggies!!!

We love roasted vegetables and this is an easy way to use almost any veggies in your house.  I had some zuchinni that was about to go bad and needed a side dish to go with a meal I was making so this was a good option.

Ingredients

1 red bell pepper
2 zuchinni
1 bunch of asparagus
5 cloves of garlic (pressed or minced)
2T Extra virgin olive oil
1 t. salt
1/2 t. pepper

preheat oven to 425
Combine garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper in the bottom of large bowl. Break ends of aspargus off and cut in 2 inch sections. Cut zuchinni in 1/2 inch disks. Quarter and seed bell pepper and then thinly slice. Add all veggies to the bowl and toss with hands/spoon ( if your a goof :D Come on get your hands in there it
is fun to play with your food even though your mom told you that you shouldn't) Spread veggies on a cookie sheet and pop in the oven for 10-15 minutes :D or until they are as tender as you like. Serve and enjoy. This also works awesome on the grill and it gives it a ton of smokey flavor.

Difficulty- Easy this dish takes barely anytime to prepare. Basic cutting and that is about it.
Look- vibrant
Review- Roasting brings out the natural flavors in the vegetables. The versatility of this and what veggies you can use is endless.

Tell me about your creations :D lets see how creative you can get. Dont forget anything goes in the kitchen.
