Tips:
- Prepare vegetables in advance: To save time, wash, peel, and chop the vegetables the day before or in the morning before you start cooking. You can also use pre-cut vegetables from the grocery store to make the process even quicker.
- Use a variety of vegetables: The more colorful your vegetable bake is, the more nutritious it will be. Aim to use a mix of green, red, orange, and yellow vegetables.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings: The basic recipe provided in the article is just a starting point. Feel free to add other herbs and spices to taste, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Be careful not to overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their nutrients. Aim to cook the vegetables until they are tender-crisp.
- Serve the vegetable bake immediately: This dish is best served hot out of the oven. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
