Frequently Asked Questions

What other vegetables can I roast?

You can roast virtually any vegetable in the oven with this recipe. A few other popular veggies to roast include onions, peppers, cauliflower, broccoli, zucchini, tomatoes, beets, carrots, and green beans.

How Long to Roast Vegetables?

The time your vegetables will need in the oven will vary depending on the vegetables you choose and their size. Some vegetables like tomatoes, cauliflower, and green beans roast much quicker than others like potatoes. The best thing to do is begin checking them after 15 minutes and giving a shake to the pan. When they’re finished, they should be tender to pierce with a fork and crisp on the outside.
If you’re roasting a variety of vegetables, some may need to be removed from the oven before others.

What’s the best temperature to roast vegetables?

Vegetables can be roasted at any temperature from 350F to 425F. Generally, the lower you roast vegetables, the sweeter the flavor and the softer the texture. For this recipe, I love crispy edges so 425F was perfect.

Can you roast frozen vegetables?

Yes, you can roast frozen veggies. It’s important to not allow them to thaw first and to cook at a higher temperature, at least 400F. They will likely not be as crisp as fresh roasted veggies but still delicious!
