Ingredients
1.5 lb baby potatoes

3 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1.5 tsp dried Italian herbs
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh thyme or parsley (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Wash and scrub baby potatoes, cut them into halves or quarters.
3. Peel and slice carrots into thick rounds or half-moons.
4. Slice zucchini into thick rounds or half-rounds, keeping pieces similar in size to potatoes and carrots.
5. In a large mixing bowl, toss all vegetables with olive oil, minced garlic, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper.
6. Spread seasoned vegetables on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they’re not crowded.
7. Roast in the oven for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
8. Check for doneness when potatoes are golden and carrots are fork-tender.
9. Remove from oven and garnish with fresh thyme or parsley if desired.
10. Serve warm as a side dish or pair with grains and protein for a full meal.
Notes
Cut all vegetables to similar sizes to ensure even cooking.
Don’t overcrowd the pan—this helps them roast, not steam.
Add zucchini a few minutes after the others if you want it firmer.
