Steps:
- Blend all ingredients except for the vegetables in a large mixing bowl to make the marinade. Pour in the vegetables and stir them around so that they get initially coated with marinade.
- Marinate the vegetables in the refrigerator for about 2 hours, stirring once or twice.
- Place the vegetables, with all the marinade, in an 9" x 13" (or larger) casserole dish, cover with aluminum foil, and bake on the middle rack in a pre-heated oven at 375-degrees F. for 45 minutes.
- Serve hot.
- TIP: Sometimes the potatoes and carrots I use in this recipe are a little flaccid -- so, to fix that problem, all I do is soak them in really cold water (after they're peeled) for about 2 hours before marinating and they crisp right up!
Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality vegetables. This will ensure that your marinated vegetables are flavorful and crisp.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color, flavor, and texture to your dish.
- Slice the vegetables evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
- Use a flavorful marinade. There are many different recipes for marinades, so choose one that you think your family and friends will enjoy.
- Marinate the vegetables for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will give the marinade time to penetrate the vegetables and infuse them with flavor.
- Cook the vegetables according to the recipe instructions. Some vegetables can be grilled, roasted, or sautéed.
- Serve the marinated vegetables as a side dish or appetizer. They can also be used as a topping for salads, sandwiches, or tacos.
Conclusion:
Marinated vegetables are a delicious and healthy way to add flavor to your meals. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed in many different ways. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, appetizer, or topping, try making a batch of marinated vegetables. You won't be disappointed!
