    Key Ingredients

    • Red baby potatoes: You’ll need some red baby potatoes. They’ll add a delicious flavor to your mixed veggies and make it more filling!
    • Sweet mini peppers: We’ll also need some sliced sweet mini peppers, which will add a pop of color and sweetness to this dish. As the veggies roast in the oven, the peppers will caramelize and become tender, complementing the savory potatoes.
    • Cauliflower: To balance out the sweetness of the peppers, we’ll be roasting some cauliflower until it’s golden brown and crispy. As the florets cook, they’ll release their natural sugars and transform into a nutty, delicious addition to this recipe.
    • Carrots: Alongside the cauliflower, we’ll toss some sliced carrots with butter, salt, and pepper, then roast them until they’re caramelized and tender. The carrots will add a touch of sweetness and texture to the dish, while also boosting its nutritional value.
    • Broccoli or zucchini: For some added greens, we’ll include either chopped broccoli or zucchini, depending on what’s in season. These veggies will round out the dish with their earthy flavors and provide a healthy dose of vitamins and minerals

    Herbs and Seasonings for Mixed Vegetables:

    • Fresh dill: We’ll use some fresh dill in our mixed veggie, which will impart a bright and tangy flavor to the dish. 
    • Parsley: To balance out the dill, we’ll include some chopped parsley in this recipe. Parsley has a bright, grassy flavor that will complement the roasted veggies and help create a harmonious blend of flavors.
    • Garlic: No savory dish is complete without garlic, and this recipe is no exception. We’ll use some garlic which will add depth and richness to the dish.
    • Salt and pepper: To tie everything together, we’ll season this recipe with salt and pepper to taste. These simple ingredients will enhance the natural flavors of the veggies, while also creating a savory base for the dish.
    • Melted butter: We’ll also need some melted butter to add on top of our mixed veggies. Not only will they add a delicious flavor but they’ll also help our veggies roast beautifully.

    How to Make Mixed Vegetables

    Making these delicious mixed vegetables is easier than you think. Here's how to make them at home step by step:

    To begin, preheat your oven to 425 F. Make sure to wash your vegetables such as cauliflower, carrots, broccoli, and red potatoes. Once they are clean, chop them into smaller pieces. You will need a large mixing bowl to combine the vegetables.

    Now, take some fresh garlic and peel it. Slice it finely and set it aside. Then, chop some dill and parsley and also set it aside. Keep some fresh herbs reserved to sprinkle after baking.

    Next, add all the chopped veggies, garlic, and herbs to the mixing bowl. Season the mixture with some salt and ground pepper as per your taste. Take some melted butter and drizzle it over the veggies. Stir all the ingredients well to combine.

    Take some melted butter and drizzle it over the veggies. Stir all the ingredients well to combine.

    It is time to transfer the buttered and seasoned veggies into a glass baking dish or casserole that comes with a glass lid. There might be too many vegetables for just one baking dish, so you can use two dishes if needed. Spread the veggies out evenly in the dish.

    Place the dish into the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are baked through. Check if the vegetables are ready by inserting a knife into the hardest vegetable; it should go through with ease.

    Once it’s done, remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool for about 15 minutes before serving. Sprinkle some of the reserved fresh dill and parsley, and mix the vegetables well with the butter that has settled to the bottom of the baking dish. This will give the veggies a richer and flavorful taste.

    Your delicious Mixed Vegetables are ready to be served!

    Preheat your oven to 425ºF (210ºC).

    Substitutions and Variations

    These delicious mixed vegetables are perfect as is, but if you're looking to change things up, here are a few variation ideas you can try:

    • Spicy: Add sliced jalapenos or red pepper flakes to give the dish a kick of heat.
    • Curried: Mix in a spoonful of curry powder to give the vegetables an Indian-inspired twist.
    • Cheesy: Top the dish with shredded cheddar cheese for a gooey, comfort food twist. You can even add some parmesan cheese on top
    • Mediterranean: Add in some sun-dried tomatoes and feta cheese for a taste of the Mediterranean.
    • Other veggies: Feel free to experiment with your favorite veggies in this delicious dish. Try some medium carrots, red onions, corn, zucchini, red bell pepper, or whichever veggies you love most. 
    • Vegan: You can also make a vegan version of this delicious dish by substituting the butter for some vegan butter or avocado oil.

    How to Store Leftovers

    To store leftovers of this mixed vegetables recipe, first let the dish cool down to room temperature. Then, transfer the leftovers to an airtight container such as Tupperware or a glass container with a tight-fitting lid. 

    Place the container in the refrigerator and store it for up to 3-4 days. If you want to freeze any extra portions, store them in an airtight container or freezer bag and place them in the freezer for up to 2-3 months.

    To reheat the leftovers, you can either place the container in the microwave for about 2-3 minutes or reheat the dish on the stovetop. If the food is frozen, let it thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating. Make sure that the leftovers are heated through before serving.

    Note that some vegetables don’t freeze well, such as zucchini or tomato. If your Mixed Vegetables recipe has any of these vegetables, it’s best not to freeze the dish as the texture may change and make the vegetables mushy.

    This dish is low in calories and high in fiber, making them an excellent addition to any diet for weight loss or maintenance.
