We love these. My 40 something year old son even liked them and he still hates veggies after all these years. He did pick out and eat only the broccoli.
I made the freeze mix vegetables it was very good
I love roasted vegetables but never thought to do it with frozen ones. They turned out great! What a great way to prepare vegetables when you don’t have a lot of time.
I cooked 2 pans at a time…1 dark the other lighter. Nice and crispy but the dark pan was blackened more. Note to self, cut back on time when using dark pan.
Do these refrigerate well? Wondering if I cook a bunch for the week they would hold up.
Personally, I find the texture best when made fresh. Luckily they are so easy you could just make a batch for dinner several times a week! It only takes just a couple minutes to prep.
Love the roasted vegggie
I was looking for an appetizing way to eat frozen vegetables. Thank you! I tried this and it was delicious!
so glad you enjoyed the recipe Nicole!
Came out perfectly! Added sliced fully-cooked kielbasa in the last 10 minutes. It was wonderful. Thank you for a great recipe!
Roasted frozen broccoli florets, asparagus spears, tri-color peppers, and haricots verse on two sheet pans. Topped with sliced, fully cooked chicken sausage during the final 10 minutes. Even my son the picky eater wolfed down two servings! This recipe will be prepared often in our home. Thanks for sharing.
I’m trying this tonight. Hoping for a great turnout. The last time I tried to do some, they turned out mushy and wet. I pray these don’t turn out that way.
Mine came out mushy both times I tried this recipe too 🙁 disappointing since flavor was great!
did you preheat the oven fully before starting? Did you cook the vegetables completely from frozen? The only time I had this be mushy was when I let the vegetables sit out and thaw some before cooking.
@Kayla, Turn your oven up to 450
