Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450g) asparagus, trimmed and cut into 23 inch pieces

  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into half-moons

  • 2 yellow squashes, sliced into half-moons

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 6 button mushrooms, sliced

  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped

  • 2 tbsp dried parsley

  • 2 tbsp olive oil


Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • Prepare vegetables: trim asparagus, slice zucchini, squash, and mushrooms.

  • In a large bowl, toss all vegetables with garlic, rosemary, parsley, and olive oil.

  • Spread mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment or foil.

  • Roast for 30–40 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden and tender.

  • Serve warm as a side or mix into bowls, tacos, or salads.

Notes

Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure proper roasting.

Add red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.

For more caramelization, use a dark metal sheet.

Tastes great warm, room temp, or cold in wraps and bowls.
