Visual Step-by-Step Instructions
This visual step-by-step instruction will help you along the way – definitely recommended if you’re a cooking beginner!
PREPARE THE VEGGIES: Thoroughly wash your vegetables. Cut sweet potatoes and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces. Slice carrots and zucchini, cut onions into eighths, halve the cherry tomatoes. Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, season with thyme leaves, salt, and pepper. Mix everything by hand briefly. → If you’re using a non-stick baking tray, you don’t need parchment paper. Alternatively, you can roast the veggies in a casserole dish.
BAKE: Roast in a preheated oven at 390°F for 20 minutes. Remove the tray from the oven, scatter cherry tomatoes and feta over the top, and bake for another 10-15 minutes.
Variations
Try these tweaks to give the dish your own spin!
- Nuts – sprinkle the roasted veggies with some toasted and chopped almonds or pecans.
- Garlic – if you’re a garlic lover, add two crushed garlic cloves to roast along.
- Extra Flavor – toss in Kalamata olives or sun-dried tomatoes for an additional flavor punch.
- Spices – season the veggies to your liking. Tastes great with ground paprika, nutmeg, coriander, or cumin.
- Spicy – red pepper flakes will add some heat.
- Protein – toss in tofu cubes for an extra protein boost.
- Vegan – Sprinkle some vegan tofu feta over the veggies before serving. I wouldn’t recommend baking the vegan feta alternative as it doesn’t melt the same way traditional feta does.
Storage
Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for 2-3 days.
Reheat in a 390°F preheated oven for 15 minutes, or enjoy cold as a salad topping.
