Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss 2 medium sliced zucchini, 1 seeded red bell pepper, and 1 cup cherry tomatoes in a bowl with 2 tbsp olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Spread vegetables in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 20-22 minutes, stirring once halfway, until edges are caramelized and tender.
  3. Step 3: While vegetables roast, whisk together 1 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tbsp tahini, and 1 tbsp water in a small bowl until smooth and creamy.
  4. Step 4: Transfer roasted vegetables to a serving platter and drizzle generously with the lemon-tahini mixture, tossing gently to coat evenly. Serve immediately while warm.
