Notes
TIMING TIPS: Time your veggies depending on what combination you choose. The peppers, broccoli and zucchini will be ready at around 30 minutes, while the delicata squash and brussels sprouts will take a little longer (35 minutes or so.)
CUTTING TIPS: Keep in mind it is helpful to cut the veggies smaller if they are hard (like carrot or squash) and larger if they are soft or have a high water content (like bell pepper or zucchini.) Brassicas (cauliflower, broccoli and Brussels sprouts) will cook at an intermediate rate- so cut them into bite size pieces.
LEFTOVERS: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for 1 minute per serving. Air fry for 4 minutes at 375 degrees to reheat. Add leftover roasted veggies to soup, stews or add to buddha bowls. Try with our maple tahini dressing!
VARIATIONS TO TRY: Use your favorite seasonings, drizzle vinegar, lemon juice, parmesan, soy sauce, add other veggies you have on hand.
