Instructions

Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature is key to getting those beautifully caramelized edges.
Prep Your Veggies: Wash and chop your vegetables. Aim for uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
Seasoning Mix: In the large bowl, mix olive oil, salt, pepper, dried oregano, and garlic powder. This simple seasoning brings out the natural flavors of the vegetables.
Toss and Coat: Add the chopped vegetables to the bowl. Toss them gently until they are well coated with the seasoning mix.
Spread on Baking Sheet: Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with non-stick spray. Spread the vegetables in a single layer, ensuring they have space between them for even roasting.
Roast to Perfection: Place the baking sheet in the oven. Roast for about 20-30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and have caramelized edges. Halfway through, give them a gentle stir for even cooking.
Serving: Serve these colorful delights hot, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs if you like. They make a fantastic side dish or a main course paired with your favorite protein.

Notes
