Ingredients (And Why They Work)
Let’s break down the key components that make this roasted vegetable medley shine:
1 lb Baby Potatoes (Red or Gold), Halved
Baby potatoes roast beautifully—they crisp on the outside while staying fluffy inside. Red and gold varieties have a buttery flavor and lovely thin skin, so there’s no need to peel.
Pro Tip: Cut potatoes in uniform halves to ensure even roasting and consistent crispiness.
1 Cup Baby Carrots (or Sliced Regular Carrots)
Carrots add natural sweetness and a pop of vibrant color. Baby carrots are convenient, but sliced large carrots work too—just aim for similar thickness to the potatoes for even cooking.
Optional Twist: Try rainbow carrots for a stunning presentation.
1 Cup Fresh Green Beans, Trimmed
Green beans add freshness and balance to the dish. Since they roast quicker than potatoes and carrots, they’re added during the second phase of roasting to avoid overcooking.
Tip: Make sure green beans are dry before roasting—moisture will cause steaming instead of crisping.
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
Olive oil helps vegetables roast evenly and adds a rich, earthy flavor. It also binds the spices and ensures those golden edges everyone loves.
3 Cloves Garlic, Minced
Nothing beats the aroma and flavor of garlic as it roasts. It caramelizes slightly and infuses the entire dish with depth and richness.
Shortcut Tip: Use a garlic press to make prep lightning fast.
1 Tsp Dried Italian Seasoning
A go-to blend of oregano, basil, thyme, and rosemary—this adds classic herb flavor without requiring you to open multiple jars.
½ Tsp Smoked Paprika
Adds a subtle smoky undertone and beautiful color. It complements the garlic and elevates the entire dish.
½ Tsp Salt + ½ Tsp Black Pepper
Simple seasoning to enhance natural veggie flavors. Feel free to adjust to taste—just don't skip!
¼ Tsp Red Pepper Flakes (Optional)
Want a little heat? Red pepper flakes deliver a gentle warmth that pairs wonderfully with the sweetness of roasted carrots and the crispness of the green beans.
1 Tbsp Fresh Parsley, Chopped (For Garnish)
Adds brightness and color to the final dish. It’s a small touch that makes a big difference in presentation and freshness.
Instructions (Step-by-Step)
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Pro Tip: Preheat the pan in the oven while you prep the veggies for extra-crispy results!
Step 2: Season & Roast the Potatoes and Carrots
In a large bowl, toss together:
1 lb halved baby potatoes
1 cup baby carrots (or sliced carrots)
1 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp Italian seasoning
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
Spread the seasoned veggies out evenly on the baking sheet, cut sides down.
Roast for 25 minutes, flipping once halfway through to get that golden crisp on both sides.
Step 3: Add the Green Beans
While the potatoes and carrots roast, toss 1 cup green beans with:
1 tbsp olive oil
A pinch of salt
After 25 minutes, remove the baking sheet and carefully add the green beans. Toss them onto the pan, spreading everything out again in a single layer.
Return to the oven and roast for another 10–15 minutes, until veggies are fork-tender and edges are crispy.
Step 4: Garnish & Serve
Sprinkle the finished dish with:
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
A pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
Serve hot and enjoy the irresistible aroma of roasted garlic and herbs!
What to Serve This With
This side dish goes with just about everything, but here are a few standout pairings:
Lemon Herb Chicken or Grilled Steak
Pan-Seared Salmon or Garlic Butter Shrimp
Vegetarian Grain Bowls with quinoa and chickpeas
Baked Tofu for a plant-based meal
Add a drizzle of tahini or pesto for extra flair
Helpful Tips for Success
💡 Don’t Overcrowd the Pan: Use a large sheet pan or two smaller ones so the vegetables roast instead of steam.
💡 Flip the Veggies: Flipping halfway through ensures that all sides get evenly browned and crispy.
💡 Want Extra Crispiness? Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end—but watch carefully!
💡 Customize It: Use what's in your fridge! Zucchini, red bell peppers, or onions all roast beautifully.
How to Store & Reheat
Store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheat: Warm in a 375°F oven or air fryer for 5–10 minutes until crispy again.
Make-Ahead Tip: You can chop and season the veggies ahead of time and refrigerate them. Just roast when you're ready to eat.
Variations & Swaps
🌈 Switch up the herbs: Use rosemary, thyme, or dill for different flavor profiles.
🧀 Add cheese: A sprinkle of grated Parmesan or crumbled feta at the end takes it up a notch.
🥓 Add protein: Toss in pre-cooked bacon bits, sausage rounds, or chickpeas before roasting.
🍋 Brighten it up: Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice just before serving.
