Ingredients

    2 large Zucchini
    2 large Yellow Squash
    2 big packs of Button mushrooms
    2 bulbs of Fennel
    7 Roma Tomatoes
    7 stems of Fresh Thyme
    1/2 c. EVOO
    3 Tbsp Minced Garlic
    1 Tbsp Kosher Salt
    1 Tbsp Fresh Ground pepper
    1 large Lemon, juiced

Directions

1. Turn your oven on to 450 degrees
2. Slice all of your veggies into a large bowl, making sure to add the sprigs of Thyme
3. Whisk together your EVOO, garlic, salt, pepper and lemon juice
4. Pour the ingrediants over the veggies and toss to coat well. (You can make more if you need/want more, this amount worked for the 3 of us)
5. Line a cookie sheet or baking dish with aluminum foil and dump the veggies onto the sheet/dish
6. Place in oven. Roast for 20 minutes, making sure to stir the veggies around so they don't burn.
7. After 20 minutes, turn your broiler on for the last 10 minutes. Continue to stir occasionally so the veggies don't burn.
8. Enjoy with ride pilaf or couscous or pasta

*Makes 8-1.5 cup servings

    EVOO is Extra Virgin Olive Oil...a term coined by Rachel Ray and widely used in our lazy speaking culture. It is actually in the newest versions of the dictionary...sad. - 6/29/09

    1/2 c olive oil is way too much for me. I put all veggies in a ziplock bag and just enough oil to coat. Then I use my grill wok and cook on the grill. Any veggies will do, whatever you have. These have become a favorite in our family! - 8/4/09

    I made this last night and it was wonderful. I made it with sweet onion instead of fennel, used 1/2 the salt, 1/4 of the pepper and no squash since none looked good in the grocery store. I loved the flavor the lemon added. - 7/2/09

    During summer I roast veggies several nights a week on the BBQ in a veggie roasting pan. I'll cut up squash, eggplant, onions and bell peppers, from the garden and add mushrooms and asparagus. Then I'll toss them with olive oil and tamari or balsamic vinegar and season to taste before cooking - yum! - 6/30/09

    I Made this and we loved it. I did make a few changes, however. I left out the fennel (we just aren't crazy about it) and added chunked vidalia onions. I also left out the salt, prefering to use Mrs. Dash. You could make this to use up any leftover vegetables and herbs. Yummy and easy. - 6/2/08

    Everyone, the reason it calls for so much oil, is that the person submitting the recipe is eating only this over some cooked grains. In that case, it's fine to use this much oil. They're eating it as a main dish, not just a side dish. :-) - 3/16/10

    Have you tried doing the same in a wok? That will save you having to take the dish out of the oven and then the grill to stir. When switching off the heat of the wok the food will still stay warm as you finish preparing the couscous. - 7/2/09

    I found no Olive Oil in the cabinet...I was out! I use my Olive Oil Spray. Sprayed the veggies, laid them out on my jelly roll pan, and seasoned one side, turn and seasoned the other side. They browned up just as well, were just as tasty, and I used hardly any oil. - 5/26/10

    I used to do something like this and this reminded me to do it again. I use a lot less oil and add some balsamic vinegar to the veggies. When they are done we have them on a whole wheat roll and add some low fat feta cheese. Now that is good! - 6/5/10

    Wonderful! Delicious! A very versatile way to combine vegetables. Since many ovens are already roasting meat at 350F, remember you can make this dish at the same time and at the lower temperature--just allow 15-20 more minutes to cook. Don't forget about celery, carrots, rutabaga, turnips, parsnips! - 8/31/12

    Just a helpful hint to the person that submitted this post. Not everyone watches Rachel Ray and knows what EVOO is. I only found out by reading others posts. This recipe has way too much oil for our liking. It tasted awful. Will reduce oil next time. - 8/31/11

    Why ruin the taste of these veggies with so much salt? Ever try fresh veggies with no salt or just a sprinkle of salt - they taste wonderful. 947 mg of sodium is 63% of the current RDA of sodium, which was reduced in 2010 from 2300 mg per day to 1500 mg per day. - 8/15/10

    To moisten the grain and reduce the oil and salt, I heat reduced sodium vegetable broth (or broth of your choice) in a separate pan and put it over the grain and veggies. - 3/25/10

    98 of the 120 calories from this dish comes from fat! I make a version of this using just a spray of pam (canola oil) on top of the veggies and then I mix it around with my hands to make sure the veggies have a little coating.
    Tastes just as yummy.

    So loved the idea, it didn't pan out too well for us. I'll try again w/o the fennel and thyme and see how that goes. Willing to try it again with variations to see if we like that better, it was ok as is. Oh and I love veggies normally. - 9/14/12

    The good thing about this recipe is you can use whatever veggies are in your garden or fridge, whatever are your family's favorite, and it works well as a main dish or a side dish. We have been doing this all summer on the grill first with store bought, and now our garden. On the grill we use oil - 9/1/12

    I think the oil was a bit heavy, but loved the addition of lemon. I make these alot, but usually use a reduced fat salad drsng (ie., italian etc) and just enough to lightly coat the veggies. - 8/31/12

    How can you justify 947.8mg of sodium. Those of us could with high blood pressure could not even attempt to make this the way it is. We would have to use a sow or salt free seasoning. Please try to make some recipes so everyone can use them. Thank you - 8/31/12

    Have been a fan of roasted veggies forever! I vary the veggies according to what is on sale and in season.
    Also, instead of the evoo I use Pam and a splash of green olive juice. I get the flavor of the oil without the calories.

    WooHoo!! No potatoes or carrots!! I do think the olive oil is too much unless I triple the veggies. I will just coat the baking dish with oil & brush more oil over their tops, then squeeze the lemon over 'em. Everyone can salt/pepper their own. YUM!! Thank you for sharing!! - 8/31/12
