Oven Roasted Mixed Vegetables

Sheet Pan Meals: We love throwing ingredients together on a sheet pan and roasting for a simple sheet pan dinner. They make busy weeknights a bit more manageable. (And clean-up isn’t bad either!) Show us your healthy take on a sheet pan meal.

I’m counting potatoes as vegetables in this recipe because they are technically botanically classified as a vegetable! :P

I have a confession to make: I haven’t cooked in the longest time. I really need to get back into meal prepping again to save money! It’s still been pretty hot/humid over here (whilst intermittently scattered with thunderstorms and torrential downpours that conveniently happen when I’m covering outdoor games).

In any case, I preface with this to throw in a disclaimer that I haven’t turned on my oven in ages. I also pretty much only have frozen fruit/vegetables in my life right now, save for the 2 apples and 1 banana that I obtained over the weekend from an event I was volunteering at. ._.

I had been planning on roasting the remnants of my Costco bag of frozen veggies, but apparently all I had were frozen peas/carrots/corn/green beans. Not ideal, but you gotta work with what you have! Next time when I try this recipe out, I want to use larger vegetables–e.g. butternut squash, sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, etc., but thankfully this turned out rather tasty anyway!

• ~1-2 tbsp drizzle of balsamic vinegar*

Additional Notes

Increasing the heat to 450 F will help to evaporate any condensation from your frozen veggies!
*I have a dark chocolate balsamic vinegar that I love and adore. I made popcorn with it before and it was glorious!

Second year of residency is definitely a lot more chill, so my being super-busy all the time is actually mostly willingly self-induced! I’m on my favorite rotation (Sports Medicine!) ever right now, so I’ll be sharing a day in the life in the upcoming weeks on that! :]
