Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with foil and coat with cooking spray.
Mix together the olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
Spread the vegetables out on the sheet pan in a single layer.
Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the top; use your hands to toss the vegetables around to evenly coat.
Roast for 25-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender and starting to caramelize. Sprinkle with parsley, then serve.
Notes
If you're using red beets and want to keep them from staining the rest of the vegetables, wrap them separately in a foil packet to contain the juices, then place the packet on the sheet pan with everything else.
These roasted vegetables will last in the fridge for up to 4 days, which makes them perfect for meal prep.
