  • 3 small zucchini, cubed
  • 1 large red onion, sliced into half moons
  • 2 teaspoons dried of frozen basil (Dorat)
  • 1 cup Extra Virgin Oil Olive, plus more for drizzling

Directions:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 375º
  2. Spread veggies over multiple baking sheets (do not over crowd), drizzle with EVOO, salt and pepper. Toss to coat with oil.
  3. Roast in oven for approximately 20 minutes or until brown and tender, tossing once in between to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
