I made this last night and it was so good. I forget how good roasted vegetables are.
Broccoli - cut in 2"-3" "trees" (no big stems)
mushrooms, button or portabella
if using portabella scrape out underside and slice
carrots - cut in 2" pieces
turnips - cut in smaller 1" pieces
onions - cut in 1/2" wedges (or shallots - my favorite)
Once in a single layer in the pan sprinkle on some kosher salt and drizzle with olive oil. I just roasted everything in a 425° oven until brown and carmelized. I put each veggie in a different pan because of varying roasting times. It was just easier for me that way. About halfway through cooking, when I noticed the bottom side browning, I did turn everything over.
I made some penne. I tossed veggies in with pasta, added a little more olive oil to coat pasta, tossed with a little more kosher salt and a little garlic powder (I was out of garlic so had to do the powder). Some of the sweeter herbs like basil would have been good in there too but I didn't have any.
It made a great meal and the olive oil is so much better for you than butter. You could always throw in some diced grilled chicken if you wanted to.
