Balsamic Roasted Vegetables
Roasting vegetables is one of the best ways to maximize their natural flavors. It’s also my favorite way to eat them. All you need is a baking sheet, an oven, some olive oil and seasoning and you can transform your favorite veggies into a tray of warm, caramelized deliciousness. Roasting intensifies any sweetness that a vegetable naturally has, so Balsamic vinegar is a really good complement to roasted veggies. I chose the vegetables for this recipe based on personal favorites and also to have an array of colors, but you can certainly use other vegetables if you prefer. This recipe would make for a mouth-watering Thanksgiving side dish, but is really simple and delicious for any day of the year.
