This recipe is from Emeril of Food Network.  It’s super simple and a nice way to cook a veg when your stovetop is full up.  Roasting vegetables is a newer thing in the scheme of my cooking experience, but I’ve really come to love the simplicity in the preparation as well as the nice browning that the veggies get.  You can use any sort of seasoning you like, depending on your own palate and what you’re serving these with.  I’ve been loving the Country French Vinaigrette from Penzeys.
