1

Prep the Veggies

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to get it nice and toasty. While the oven is heating up, wash and chop your veggies of choice. We recommend using a variety of colorful vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and red onions. Cut them into bite-sized pieces for easy roasting.

2

Coat with Pesto Genovese

In a large bowl, toss the chopped veggies with 2 tablespoons of Pesto Genovese. Make sure all the veggies are well-coated with the flavorful green goodness. If you like a stronger pesto taste, feel free to add more. Get creative!

3

Spread 'em Out

Transfer the coated veggies to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Arrange them in a single layer, making sure they have enough space to crisp up. Crowded veggies won't get that lovely roasted texture we're aiming for.

4

Roast to Perfection

Pop the baking sheet into the preheated oven and let the magic happen. Roast the veggies for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Keep an eye on them, as cooking times may vary depending on your oven.

5

Serve and Enjoy!

Transfer the roasted vegetables to a serving dish, sprinkle some freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top if desired, and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Now, it's time to savor the flavors and share the veggie love. Serve as a side dish or enjoy as a light and healthy main course.
