Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as carrots, bell peppers, zucchini)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup rice (white or brown, depending on your preference)
- 2 cups vegetable broth or water
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your vegetables roast evenly and achieve the perfect texture.
- Prepare the Vegetables: On a baking sheet, toss the mixed vegetables with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Make sure the vegetables are well-coated for maximum flavor.
- Roast the Vegetables: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes. The vegetables should be tender and slightly caramelized by the end of this process.
- Cook the Rice: While the vegetables are roasting, rinse the rice under cold water to remove excess starch. Cook it in vegetable broth or water according to the package instructions. Using broth instead of water can enhance the flavor of the rice significantly.
- Serve: Once everything is cooked, serve the roasted vegetables over the cooked rice. The combination of textures and flavors will surely delight your taste buds.
