Roasted Vegetables:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
  • 1 medium zucchini, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 medium carrot, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

Additional Ingredients:

  • 3 cups cooked brown rice

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roast the vegetables: Toss the zucchini, bell pepper, broccoli, carrot, and onion with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on the baking sheet and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.
