Recipe of the Month: Rosemary Seasoned Roasted Vegetables


This is a vibrant and savory casserole dish that is easy to prepare and perfect for eating healthy in April. Seasoned with rosemary and thyme, this vibrant dish is flavorful and versatile. While best served hot, it can be made a day ahead and reheated at any time. You should have a good amount of leftovers so cut the recipe in half if need be. Lemon juice can be substituted for the balsamic vinegar for a little zestier flavor.
