Neapolitan Herb Roasted Vegetables
Sep 18th 2025
Caramelized edges, tender centers, and a bright, herby gloss from The Olive Leaf Neapolitan Herb Balsamic—this sheet-pan side turns any mix of roots and veggies into a colorful crowd-pleaser. It’s weeknight-easy and holiday-worthy.
Ingredients (6–8 servings)
- 6–7 cups mixed vegetables, 1” pieces (beets, carrots, sweet potatoes, potatoes, Brussels sprouts, green beans, etc.)
- 1–2 onions, cut into wedges and separated
- ¼ cup The Olive Leaf Mild Intensity Olive Oil
- 3 Tbsp The Olive Leaf Neapolitan Herb Balsamic
- 1–1½ tsp kosher salt, ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- Optional: 1 tsp dried Italian herbs or chopped fresh rosemary; chopped parsley for serving
Directions
- Heat the oven. Preheat to 400°F. Line 2 rimmed sheet pans for best browning.
- Season. In a large bowl, whisk olive oil, balsamic, salt, pepper (and herbs, if using). Add vegetables and onions; toss until thoroughly coated.
- Roast. Spread in a single layer (don’t crowd). Roast 25 minutes, stir/flip, then roast 15–25 minutes more until edges are deeply golden and centers are tender (total 45–60 minutes, depending on veg).
- Finish. Taste for salt, add a tiny splash of balsamic if you like, and sprinkle with parsley.
Smart Swaps & Timing
- Stagger for perfect doneness: Start dense roots (beets, carrots, potatoes) 10 minutes early; add quick-cooking veg (green beans) for the final 15 minutes.
- Extra-crispy tip: Preheat the bare sheet pans in the oven; add the dressed veggies to hot pans.
- Flavor twists: Swap in Garlic, Rosemary, or Tuscan Herb Olive Oil; try Fig or Maple Balsamic for a sweeter fall vibe.
Serve With
Roasted poultry or pork, salmon, or tossed with farro and feta for a hearty meatless bowl.
