Use any mushrooms you like. No fresh herbs? Sub with dried or Italian seasoning. Add cherry tomatoes, nuts, or finish with balsamic glaze for extra flavor.TIPS: Cut veggies evenly for even roasting. Don’t overcrowd the pan—use two if needed. Roast until golden, then broil for extra crispness if desired.SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Serve over rice with sesame seeds and green onion, toss with quinoa and tahini, stuff into a pita with hummus, or add to a salad with vinaigrette. It also pairs well with grilled chicken, salmon, or stirred into pasta with olive oil and parmesan.
