Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat and Prepare Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 18 by 13-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
- Step 2: Mix Seasoning In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, and Italian seasoning. Allow the mixture to sit for 5-10 minutes to enhance the flavor infusion.
- Step 3: Toss the Vegetables Place the sliced zucchini, yellow squash, and tomatoes in a large mixing bowl. Pour the oil and seasoning mixture over the vegetables and gently toss with your hands, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated.
- Step 4: Arrange for Roasting Transfer the coated vegetables to the prepared baking sheet. Spread them out into an even layer, and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese evenly over the vegetables.
- Step 5: Roast Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the cheese is golden brown.
