  • Instructions.
  • Ingredients.
    • Preheat the oven to 475 degrees (F). Spray an 18 by 13-inch rimmed baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Place bell pepper, carrots, onions and zucchini on a baking sheet.
    • Drizzle with 1 Tbsp olive oil and season with salt and toss to evenly coat. Roast in a preheated oven for about 15 minutes until tender, tossing once halfway through roasting.
    • Then if desired move the oven rack closer to the broiler and broil for about 1 – 2 minutes to add a light char.
