I get asked all the time about sides…sometimes we just get “stuck in a rut” making the same side dishes with our meals (mashed potatoes, green beans, corn, etc…I know the drill). That is why I love these roasted veggies- they are so easy to make, delicious and versatile….you can serve them with just about any main course! You can also add any veggie of your choice to change it up a bit!
Wash and cut veggies of your choice. Here I used broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and red potatoes. Drizzle with oil, add garlic powder, salt and fresh ground pepper. I microwaved the red potatoes for 2 mins prior (make sure to pierce them with a fork!) and sliced them in half-saves time and it helps the other veggies from becoming too roasted.
Place in a oven heated to 425 and turn on the timer for 8 mins. Stir with spatula and put back in another 8 mins.
If your main meal isn’t quite done (I was grilling steaks on the grill- yes, it is January, LOL) you can simply cover with foil to keep warm.
Whala! Guess what? This is a gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free meal. Not so bad hu?! This was served with my husband’s favorite- NY Strip Steak (from the butcher of course!)

Roasted cauliflower and brocolli are MY FAVOURITE! I make mine with out the garlic and pepper and I can eat it like popcorn…. Nomnomnom…. 🙂
Awesome! I left out the potatoes. I’m on the South Beach Diet for life and potatoes are yummy goodness, but not so great for the waist. I sprinkled a little dried Italian seasoning in the mix. Everything cooked up perfectly with just the right amount of roast, and tasted great. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Chris!
