Notes
The optionals are endless when it comes to roasting veggies, you can add diced yellow, orange or red bell peppers, broccoli even purple yams, cauliflower, corn, etc.
I like to cut the veggies med size and not too small because when all the veggies get roasted they will shrink half in size. So be mindful of dicing everything to a similar size.
I do like to toss them around a few times while there baking so everything gets roasted evenly.
I have not tried this recipe in the air fryer and honestly think it will require too much oil and veggies will come out dry. Sometimes roasting it the old school way is the way to go!
I did use my large baking sheet for this recipe, you don’t want to overcrowd the veggies when they roast.
Also if you feel like the veggies look a bit dry when roasting hit them a little bit more of avocado oil.
