Roasting vegetables is one of the simplest and most delicious ways to cook them. The high heat of the oven caramelizes the natural sugars in the vegetables, creating a sweet and slightly crispy exterior. This method also helps to preserve the vegetables' nutrients, making them a healthy and flavorful addition to any meal. This particular medley of roasted vegetables is inspired by the flavors of the Mediterranean. The combination of broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, zucchini, and onion is a classic, and the addition of olive oil and oregano adds a touch of authenticity. This dish is also incredibly versatile; you can add or remove vegetables as you like, and you can adjust the seasonings to your own taste.
