Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400℉. NOTE: You will need a large roasting pan (at least 11x17) to make the full amount.
  • Prepare the Vegetables. Cut all of the vegetables into bite-sized pieces. For the eggplants, slice them and cut each slice into quarters. For the zucchini, slice them and cut each slice in half. For the potatoes and tomatoes, cut them into wedges and cut each wedge in half. For the onion, slice them and cut each slice into quarters (or dice them if you don't like large chunks of onion).
    2 large eggplants, 4 medium zucchini, 4 large potatoes, 4 large tomatoes, 1 large onion
  • Mix the Sauce. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the tomato paste, olive oil, garlic, and water. Whisk until combined and set aside.
    1 6-ounce can tomato paste, 1 cup extra virgin olive oil, ½ cup water, 4 cloves of garlic
  • Put It All Together. Place the vegetables in a large roasting pan. Add the salt, pepper, and herbs. Pour the sauce over the top and toss to evenly coat the vegetables.
    1½ tbsp sea salt, 1½ tsp black pepper, ¼ cup fresh basil, ¼ cup fresh parsley, 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • Bake. Cover the roasting pan with foil and bake at 400℉ for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, stir, and return to the oven to finish baking uncovered for an addition 20-30 minutes or until everything is tender.
  • Serve. Allow to cool for 20 minutes. Serve warm with fresh bread to dip in the sauce.
