Kori's Tips

For more helpful hints, substitution ideas, cooking tips, and other delicious recipes check out my post above.

VARIATIONS: Swap dried thyme or oregano for the Italian seasoning if that’s what you have. If you're avoiding salt, skip it and adjust after roasting. Smoked paprika adds depth, but regular paprika or a pinch of cumin works too. Feel free to tweak the spice levels to your taste—this blend is made to flex.

TIPS: If possible, use freshly ground spices for the most vibrant flavor. Toss your vegetables with a little olive oil before adding the seasoning to help them stick and roast evenly. Spread veggies in a single layer on the baking sheet—overcrowding leads to steaming, not roasting! Double the spice blend and store in an airtight container for later.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: This roasted vegetable seasoning is perfect for everything from crispy Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes to cauliflower, carrots, and zucchini. Try it on sheet pan meals, stirred into soups, sprinkled over grain bowls, or even tossed with melted butter for roasted vegetables, scrambled eggs, or chickpeas.
