Cooking Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Position the oven rack in the middle.
  2. Prepare all ingredients: Wash and dry the zucchini, bell peppers, carrots, and cherry tomatoes. Cut the zucchini into half-moon slices, the bell peppers into strips, and the carrots into thin rounds. Slice the red onion into wedges and finely chop the garlic.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, bell peppers, carrots, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and garlic. Drizzle with 45 ml (3 tablespoons) of olive oil.
  4. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt, ½ teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh thyme. Toss all the vegetables until evenly coated.
  5. Line a large baking sheet (approximately 43 x 30 cm or 17 x 12 inches) with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Spread the vegetable mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Verify vegetables aren’t overcrowded for even roasting.
  6. Roast in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, stirring halfway through (around 15 minutes in) to promote even cooking. The vegetables should be tender and lightly browned when done.
  7. If using balsamic vinegar, drizzle 15 ml (1 tablespoon) over the roasted vegetables immediately after taking them out of the oven. Stir gently to combine.
  8. Allow the roasted vegetable medley to cool for about 5 minutes before serving. The vegetables should be fragrant and bursting with color. Enjoy warm!
