How to Make the Best Roasted Summer Squash with Sweet Peppers and Onions
Serve this simple vegetarian dish as the complementary side to any of your favorite grilling entrees or main dish casseroles.
- Ingredients you’ll need to make Roasted Summer Squash with Peppers and Onions: One large yellow squash and one large zucchini, one red onion, red bell pepper and orange bell pepper, olive oil, garlic salt, thyme and black pepper.
- Kitchen gadgets you’ll need: One large sheet pan or two medium size pans, a sharp knife and chopping board, measuring cups and spoons, a mixing bowl and a large spoon for stirring everything together. You can also opt to skip the bowl and mix everything together on the pan.
- You can easily adjust the amount of vegetables for this simple recipe adding more or using less depending on the amount of servings that you need.
- You can add quartered potatoes to this recipe. When doing so, keep in mind the size as potatoes will take longer to bake. Place them onto the pan first and allow them to bake then add the remaining ingredients.
- Store leftovers chilled in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- I love turning these vegetables into a pizza toppr for a round two meal. To do so, arrange them on top of a pizza crust, drizzle with pizza sauce and plenty of shredded mozzarella cheese for a roasted vegetable pizza.
