A Toast To Roasted Vegetables
There may not be a better weeknight method for increasing your vegetable intake than roasting. Roasted vegetables are simple to prepare, quick to cook and there are endless variations you can make. The simplest methods are often the best, however. My favorite way to roast green beans, cauliflower, asparagus and now kalettes is simply to toss them in olive oil and generously season them with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper and pop them in a hot oven for about 10 minutes.

Tips
- Cut all your vegetables in similar size so they roast evenly.
- Don't overcrowd or the vegetables will steam and not roast. Roasting is what gives you those delicious crispy edges.
