Ingredient Notes
To make these easy Oven Roasted Vegetables, you will need the following ingredients (full measurements in recipe card below):
- brussels sprouts - if you don’t have brussels sprouts on hand, you can substitute them for roughly chopped cabbage. It will be similar in flavor but you may have to adjust cooking time to make sure you don’t overcook the cabbage.
- red onion - we like using red onions because of the flavor and the beautiful color they add to this vegetable medley. Feel free to substitute with white or yellow onions.
- carrots
- bell peppers - you can use bell peppers of any color. We used yellow and orange bell peppers.
- broccoli florets - or substitute with cauliflower florets
- yellow potatoes
- olive oil - you can also use coconut oil or avocado oil.
- balsamic vinegar - you can also use red wine vinegar for a similar flavor.
- Italian seasoning - feel free to substitute with other dried herbs for a different flavor profile such as dried oregano, thyme, or dill.
- salt and pepper
You will also need measuring cups and spoons and a half sheet baking pan.

Storage and Freezing Instructions
How to Store and Reheat
Store leftover oven roasted vegetables in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat in a 425F preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until warm and crisp, or in the air fryer at 400F for 10 minutes until warm.
How to Freeze
Spread leftover vegetable medley on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and freeze for 2 hours. Then transfer the frozen veggies to a freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. You can reheat them straight out of the freezer (no need to thaw them first) by sautéing until heated through and crisped up. You can also reheat them in a 450℉ preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or in the air fryer at 400F for 10-15 minutes.
Recipe Tips and Tricks
- Prep the vegetables ahead of time. The most time consuming part of this recipe is cutting up the veggies. Save yourself a bit of prep work before dinner by cutting the vegetables a day or two beforehand. You can store them separately or together in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Then, just use them as directed in the recipe.
- Customize the veggies. Use this recipe with any combination of vegetables that you want. Make sure to cut them in similar sizes (about 1 inch). You also want to pick veggies with a similar cook time so that they cook evenly.
- Crisp them up more. If you would like it the sheet pan vegetables to be a little more crispier and charred, place the sheet pan under the broiler for a couple minutes. But keep a close eye on the broiler as things can burn fast in there.
- Repurpose the leftovers. Leftover roasted vegetable medley make a great addition to omelets, salads, soups and stocks, and quiches. Use them in our Vegetable Frittata or Thanksgiving Salad.
