EASY ROASTED VEGETABLES
Slide a tray into the oven on Sunday, and eat roasted vegetables with grains, pastas, and salads (or as a side with anything) all week. Simply cut them so they cook uniformly: Denser vegetables, like potatoes and carrots, should be a little smaller than ones with more water, like zucchini. Slice tomatoes in half and roast them open-side-up to retain their juices.

Serve, or let cool completely and refrigerate in an airtight container up to 1 week. Vegetables can be reheated in the microwave or in a 350-degree oven until warmed through.
EASY LEMONY ORZO WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES AND FETA
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400° F.
- Toss the bell peppers, onion, and eggplant with the olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper on a large sheet pan. Roast the vegetables for about 20 minutes, and then toss in the garlic. (Do not add it earlier or it will burn). Roast for about 20 minutes more, or until browned, turning once or twice with a large spatula.
- Meanwhile, cook the orzo in plenty of boiling salted water for about 7 minutes, until tender. Do not over cook. Drain the orzo and transfer to a large serving bowl. When the roasted vegetables are done and while they are still warm, add them to the pasta, scraping all the liquid and seasonings from the roasting pan into the pasta bowl.
- To make the dressing, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. (It makes more than what you will actually need for this recipe)
- Pour some (but not all of the dressing) on the pasta and vegetables. Let everything come to room temperature, then add the toppings: scallions, pine nuts, Greek Feta, and fresh basil. Gently toss everything to combine. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Serve at room temperature.

- Choose the right vegetables: Vegetables that are best for roasting include root vegetables like potatoes, carrots, and parsnips; cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower; and hearty vegetables like eggplant and zucchini.
- Cut the vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly. For root vegetables, cut them into 1-inch cubes. For cruciferous vegetables, cut them into florets. For hearty vegetables, cut them into 1-inch pieces.
