    To make, start by chopping all of your favorite vegetables into large cubes. We love using eggplant, red onions, potatoes, and peppers but feel free to use ANY vegetables you have on hand.

    Next, mince fresh oregano and any other fresh herbs you have on hand. Rosemary, thyme or parsley would be great as well.

    Lastly, toss with olive oil, salt and pepper to evenly coat all of the vegetables.

    Frequently Asked Questions:

    Can I use dried herbs if I don’t have fresh herbs on hand?

    Yes of course! Dried herbs are more potent than fresh so if you’re using dried, reduce by 1/3-1/2. For example, for 1 tablespoon of fresh oregano use 1 teaspoon dried.

    Can I make this dish ahead of time?

    Yes absolutely – it tastes great the next day or two. Simply reheat when needed. Will last in the refrigerator up to 5 days.

    What does roasting do to vegetables?

    When roasting vegetables, the high cooking temperature brings out the natural sugars resulting in sweet, caramelized vegetables. For example, roasted garlic is sweet and tender, not spicy or bitter.

    Roasting Tip:

    Cook the vegetables in a single layer to avoid steaming the vegetables which will result in mushy vegetables. To do this I suggest using a very large baking pan or two regular-sized baking sheets.
