Ingredients

• 1 lb, peeled and sliced into 1/2-inch coins carrots
• 2 medium, sliced into 1/2-inch half-moons zucchini
• 2, any color, sliced into 1/2-inch strips bell peppers
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp honey
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1/2 tsp dried thyme
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, toss 1 lb sliced carrots, 2 medium sliced zucchini, and 2 sliced bell peppers with 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp honey, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1/2 tsp dried thyme, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until evenly coated.
2. Step 2: Spread vegetables in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until tender and caramelized at the edges.
3. Step 3: Check for doneness by piercing a carrot with a fork — it should be tender but not mushy. If needed, roast for an additional 5 minutes.
4. Step 4: Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with additional dried thyme if desired. Serve warm as a side or over rice for a complete meal.
