Ingredients

  • 1 small zucchini (cut in quarters lengthwise)
  • 6 small carrots (or one-two larger carrots cut in halves/quarters lengthwise)
  • 1 small butternut squash (cut in 6 wedges)
  • 1 medium beet (cut in quarters)
  • 2 Asian eggplants (cut in halves)
  • 1 lemon (cut in 6 wedges)
  • 1/2 a red onion (cut into wedges)
  • 2 stems cherry tomatoes on the vine (optional)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Salt (to taste)

For the vegetable dressing:

  • 6 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp lime juice
  • 2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh cilantro (or parsley, basil, etc.)
  • 1 Tbsp finely chopped fresh oregano (or 1 teaspoon dry oregano)
  • 2 garlic cloves (pressed or grated)
  • 1/2 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450F.
  • Line a large (I am using a 16" x 21") baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Combine the dressing ingredients in a large bowl, then whisk well, breaking Feta into small pieces.
  • Add roasted vegetables to the bowl, one kind at a time, and smother with the dressing.
  • Arrange the vegetables on the baking sheet, making sure that the vegetables of the same kind are grouped together.
  • Scrape any remaining dressing from the bowl and sprinkle evenly over the vegetables.
  • Sprinkle some salt and pepper to taste. Remember that Feta already has salt in it, some brands more then others.
  • Bake on the top rack for 30-35 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft and cooked through.
  • Remove vegetables from the oven and serve immediately. Squeeze the juice/pulp from roasted lemon wedges over the vegetables.
