Tips

Choose pre-washed and pre-cut veggies. Although they cost a little more, pre-cut veggies in the produce section can save SO much time!

Use fresh herbs. While dried herbs and spices are truly SO easy, fresh ones take just an extra minute or two to chop and the flavour pay-off is amazing (and definitely worth it!).

Keep the flavours simple. Choose basic flavours you have on hand and let the flavours of the vegetables shine!

Prep ahead of time. If you can, make the side dish ahead of time, cover it, and store in the refrigerator until you’re ready to bake and serve!
