ROASTED VEGETABLES FOR MEXICAN NITE
As a vegetarian I always look for new ways to turn the same old dish into something new and tasty. Since I love Mexican food I add these veggies to my burritos, tacos, and tostados. On a recent trip to Washington DC my sister took me to a place that does Mexican food with Californian style. This following recipe is an inspiration from our lunch (and dinner) that day. The vegetables are only limited by your palate.

Tips:
- Choose firm vegetables: Vegetables that hold their shape well, such as carrots, potatoes, and broccoli, are best for roasting. Avoid vegetables that are easily overcooked, such as leafy greens and tomatoes.
- Cut vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for pieces that are about 1-2 inches in size.
- Toss vegetables with oil and seasonings: This will help them brown and develop flavor. Use a combination of olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
- Roast vegetables at a high temperature: This will help them caramelize and develop a crispy exterior. Aim for a temperature of 400°F (200°C) or higher.
- Stir vegetables occasionally: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Roast vegetables until they are tender and slightly browned: The exact cooking time will vary depending on the type of vegetable and the size of the pieces. As a general rule, most vegetables will take 20-30 minutes to roast.
Conclusion:
Roasted vegetables are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily roast vegetables at home. Experiment with different types of vegetables, seasonings, and cooking methods to find your favorite combinations.
