Chop up your favorite vegetables, coat them in the tangy balsamic sauce mixture, and let them roast in the oven– that’s it! 25 minutes later you have an excellent side dish that you can feel good about eating.

Another convenience this recipe offers is how versatile it can be. While summer squashes and bell peppers are excellent options, many other vegetables pair well with balsamic as well. This allows you to choose whatever is in season at the moment, or any veggies you already have and need to use up!
