Ingredients

• 1 pound Asparagus
• 1 pound Baby carrots
• 1 pound Radishes
• 1 pound Baby potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Rosemary
• 1 tablespoon Thyme
• 1.5 teaspoons Kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash all the vegetables thoroughly. Trim the tough ends off the asparagus, peel the baby carrots if desired, halve the radishes, and cut the baby potatoes into bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

Place the prepared vegetables in a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl.

Step 5

Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables, and sprinkle with rosemary, thyme, kosher salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat everything evenly.

Step 6

Spread the vegetables into a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even roasting.

Step 7

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to promote even browning, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 8

Remove the vegetables from the oven and drizzle with fresh lemon juice for a bright, zesty finish.

Step 9

If desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese for added richness and flavor.

Step 10

Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy on its own as a light, healthy meal.
