Possible Ingredient Alternatives
Zucchini can be replaced with yellow squash or eggplant, maintaining a similar texture and nutritional profile. Cut the substitute vegetable into similar-sized pieces for even cooking. Mushrooms can be substituted with bell peppers or artichoke hearts for a different flavor while still providing bulk and texture to the dish. Adjust cooking time slightly as needed. Extra virgin olive oil can be swapped with avocado oil or grapeseed oil for a different flavor profile or higher smoke point. Use the same amount as called for in the recipe. For a lower-fat option, consider using a cooking spray instead, but be aware this may affect the overall flavor and texture of the dish.

Ingredients
- 3 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise and sliced into 1/4-inch pieces (approximately 1 pound)
- 1 1/2 cups mushrooms, sliced
- 1 yellow onion, cut into rings
- 2 to 3 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning mix
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Begin by preheating your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
This ensures that your oven is ready for roasting the vegetables and helps in cooking them evenly.
Step 2: Prepare the Vegetables
Place all of the prepared vegetables and seasonings in a large bowl.
Toss them well to ensure that each piece is coated with the seasonings.
This mixing step enhances the flavors during the roasting process.
Step 3: Arrange in the Roasting Pan
Coat an 11×13-inch roasting pan or the bottom of a broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Spread the seasoned vegetable mixture evenly over the bottom of the prepared pan.
This will help the vegetables cook uniformly.
Step 4: Roast the Vegetables
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the vegetables for 15 minutes.
After the initial baking period, stir the vegetables to promote even cooking and browning.
Continue to cook for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender and nicely browned to your liking.
Step 5: Serve
Once the vegetables are cooked through and have reached a rich, roasted color, remove them from the oven.
Serve them hot as a side dish or incorporate them into your main meal.
Enjoy the roasted goodness!
