Ingredients Needed
For the Roasted Veggies
- 1 lb baby potatoes (red or gold), halved
- 1 cup baby carrots (or sliced regular carrots)
- 1 cup fresh green beans, trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
How to Make Our Garlic Herb Roasted Veggies
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
Step 2: Prep the Vegetables
Wash and dry all vegetables thoroughly. Cut the baby potatoes in half so they roast evenly. Trim the green beans and slice carrots if using large ones.
Step 3: Season Everything
Add the potatoes, carrots, and green beans to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then add minced garlic, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Toss well until every piece is evenly coated. This ensures even roasting and maximum flavor.
Step 4: Roast
Spread the vegetables out in a single layer on the baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding—this helps them roast instead of steam.
Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden and fork-tender and the veggies are lightly caramelized.
Step 5: Finish & Serve
Remove from the oven and taste. Adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot.
This works beautifully as a healthy roasted vegetable side dish or as a base for protein bowls and meal prep.

Tips & FAQs
How do I make the veggies extra crispy?
Make sure they’re completely dry before roasting and don’t overcrowd the pan.
Can I use frozen vegetables?
Fresh works best. Frozen veggies release moisture and won’t caramelize as well.
Can I swap vegetables?
Yes. Zucchini, broccoli, cauliflower, or Brussels sprouts work great—just adjust cooking time.
Is this recipe good for meal prep?
Absolutely. These roasted veggies reheat well and pair easily with protein-focused meals.
Can I make this oil-free?
You can reduce the oil, but a small amount helps with flavor and proper roasting.
Simple, bold, and reliable—these garlic herb roasted veggies are the kind of recipe you’ll keep coming back to. Crispy, comforting, and effortlessly delicious.
