LEMON-HERB SHEET PAN ROASTED VEGETABLES
A mix of colorful root vegetables may be your star side. Peeled, prechopped butternut squash saves time, but pieces tend to be irregular and small--we prefer peeling and cubing it yourself.

FAT-FREE LEMON HERB ROASTED VEGGIES
I made this to satisfy one of my constant roasted-veggie cravings! You won't believe how filling this is; it'll do for lunch along with a fruit or juice, honest! If you like a stronger lemon flavour, use more of the concentrate. The combination of herbs is really quite wonderful, if I do say so myself :-) Enjoy! (Note: Prep. time includes marinating time).

Steps:
- Peel and chop the veggies as directed and place them in a large ziplock bag.
- In a non-metallic bowl, mix together the marinade ingredients and mix well.
- Pour the marinade into the ziplock bag, seal it, and shake it well such that all the veggies are coated with the herb marinade.
- Let it sit for at least 30 minutes (45 minutes to 1 hour is preferable).
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celcius (392 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Spray a casserole dish or baking sheet lightly with cooking spray.
- Remove the veggies from the ziplock bag and arrange them on the dish/tray.
- Bake on the top rack of the oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the veggies are as done as you want them; turn once or twice during baking.
- Alternately, you can also grill the veggies in skewers, I prefer that way!
- After they're done, pile the veggies onto a large plate, season with extra salt and pepper if required, pour yourself a tall glass of cold fruit juice, and sit down to a shockingly healthy and light lunch!
Tips:
- Choose a variety of vegetables. This will ensure that you get a variety of nutrients and flavors; strive for a mix of colors and textures.
- Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
- Toss the vegetables with olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and seasonings. This will help them to brown and develop flavor.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature. This will help them caramelize and get crispy.
- Check the vegetables frequently and stir them occasionally. This will prevent them from burning.
- Serve the roasted vegetables immediately. They are best enjoyed hot and crispy.

Using fresh herbs and lemon juice gives these roasted veggies a bright and zesty flavor. Additionally, the olive oil helps to caramelize the vegetables and give them a slightly crispy texture.
