This vegetable-filled side dish is a flavorful mix of fresh vegetables and herbs roasted in the oven and lightly coated in olive oil.
These roasted vegetables would be excellent to serve over the main protein, like fish or chicken. If you're looking to add a bit of citrus flavor, squeeze a bit of lemon or orange to give this dish a hint of zest.
If you have vegetarian or vegan friends over for dinner, this would be a good side dish to prepare for both meat- and non-meat eaters. Â
You could also pair it with a starchy vegetable like sweet potatoes or butternut squash in lieu of serving bread or rice. If you do choose to squeeze a bit of citrus over this veggie-filled dish, you can serve it with a paired citrus chicken dish.
If you don't like eggplant or have a difficult time finding it at your local grocery store, you can swap eggplant out for another vegetable like green beans or carrots.
However, if you decide to make a swap, be sure you adjust the cooking time, especially if you are substituting a starchy vegetable.Â
