Roasted Summer Vegetables

June 17, 2010 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 11 Comments

Roasted Summer Vegetables ~ Keeping summer vegetables simple with a quick roast of squash and zucchini for a fast and healthy weekday side dish.

Roasted Squash and Zucchini

Roasted Summer Vegetables

I know I’m not alone in this, but hot summer days make me lazy, traffic makes me cranky and complicated dinners on weekdays make me crazy. Given all that, I try to keep things simple Monday through Friday.

My favorite weekday meal: Grilled Chicken with Roasted Vegetables.

I love it even more because Matt does all the grilling and he is a master at it, while I have the one simple task of doing the vegetables.

Sorry no pics of the chicken, his philosophy, respect the food first. That means food is eaten while hot and not after I have spent 30 minutes toiling around with the composition and lighting.  Yeah, I know-I’m slow, but I’m also a novice with this photography thing.

Staying mindful of the theme for simplicity in this post I am keeping this one short.

A few notes:
1. I like my vegetables crisp, but you prefer a softer texture cook them for  5-7 minutes longer than the instructions call for.
2. You can skip the casserole dish assembly all together and just place the slice vegetables onto a bake sheet lined with foil.

    That is such a beautiful shot and if I didn’t know it was veggies I may have thought you did a fruit dish using lemons and limes!

    Great idea baking this in a casserole – lovely photo! My sweetie and I prepare summer squash the same way, but directly on the BBQ. 🙂

    I love how this is such a simple dish, yet you make it something special because you took the time to alternate the slices so prettily.

    Yumm Yumm! Either in oven or grill beautiful, tasty, and ohh so easy! No peeling for me though, just wash well, maybe peel off any odd spots. Doesn’t look as though they are really peeled in the picture either. Hey, anything to make it easier. 🙂 Did mine on grill while slow cooking some ribs, the veggies picked up the smokiness and flavors from the grill as well. Great idea!

They grumpily ate this. I feel no guilt. I’m pretty sure they know how to pour themselves a bowl of cereal, if they’re still hungry.
