Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut 1 large broccoli head into florets, slice 2 medium zucchini into 1/2-inch rounds, and dice 1 red bell pepper into 1-inch pieces. Place all vegetables in a large bowl.
  2. Step 2: Whisk together 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp ground turmeric, 1/2 tsp dried oregano, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and the zest from 1 lemon in a small bowl. Pour over vegetables and toss until evenly coated.
  3. Step 3: Spread vegetables in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway, until edges are golden and tender when pierced with a fork.
  4. Step 4: Squeeze juice from 1 lemon over the roasted vegetables. Toss with 1 cup cherry tomatoes and serve warm.

Frequently asked questions

How long does Turmeric-Roasted Vegetable Medley take to make?

Total time is about 40 minutes (15 min prep + 25 min cook). Most home cooks find this fits comfortably into a weeknight; double the batch on Sunday for two dinners.

How do I store leftover Turmeric-Roasted Vegetable Medley?

Cool to room temperature within 2 hours, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat covered in a 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes, or microwave at 70% power in 60-second bursts to keep large head broccoli from drying out.

Can I substitute ingredients in Turmeric-Roasted Vegetable Medley?

Yes — most ingredients in this recipe have flexible swaps. For oil, use any neutral high-smoke-point oil (avocado, grapeseed, refined coconut). For aromatics, dried herbs at ⅓ the volume of fresh work in a pinch. The full ingredient list is shoppable on Instacart so you can see substitutes in real time.

How do I scale Turmeric-Roasted Vegetable Medley for a different number of people?

The recipe is written for 4 servings. Multiply each ingredient by (your serving target / 4). Cook time stays roughly the same up to 2x; for 3-4x batches, switch from a skillet to a sheet pan or stockpot so the food isn't crowded — overcrowding steams instead of browns.

Is Turmeric-Roasted Vegetable Medley gluten free?

Yes — this recipe is tagged gluten free based on its ingredient list. Always cross-check labels for packaged ingredients (sauces, broths, condiments) since formulations vary by brand.
