One Tray Vegetable Bake


OK. No more vegetable fritters but a less oily way to utilize leftover vegetables. I could have cooked a stir fry but that is such a hassle. 

The easiesr way? Just dump them all in a tray and bake!


It's a convenient way to make use of odd and ends. I mean, I had three small potatoes, one cup and a bit of corn, one small sweet potato and 3/4 each of a red, green and yellow pepper.

I just sliced the peppers thinly and cut the potatoes into cubes. Then each category of vegetable was tossed with olive oil and placed on a lined baking tray to cook together in the oven.


This makes a very nice side dish to accompany roasted meats or you can even toss the whole lot with a dressing to make roasted vegetable salad. Oh yes, this is a lot easier than frying fritters.

  2. Exactly my type of cooking - everything in one pot, one tray, one pan.

  3. When I see the word one tray....I'm already on board! ;) Plus, I so love roasted vegetables...and I've roasted all these before...just not together. I usually don't roast potatoes (or sweet potatoes) as I've always thought they need to be partially cooked first (boiled or steamed), otherwise it'd be difficult to get them to soften. But from your pics, I think I've spotted the key to getting them soft, cut them into small cubes! ^_~

  5. Ah, looks so delicious! I could easily finish this whole bowl on its own as 1 complete lunch. In fact I prefer eating this vege bowl than deep fried chicken.
