Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups zucchini thinly sliced
  • 1 ½ cups summer squash thinly sliced
  • 1 ½ cups carrots thinly sliced
  • ¾ cup sweet onion thinly sliced

  • 1 tsp. fresh thyme finely chopped
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  • In a large bowl combine zucchini, summer squash, carrots, onion, asparagus, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Toss to completely coat the vegetables.

  • Place vegetable parchment paper packets on a large baking sheet and bake for 17-20 minutes.
  • Serve immediately with additional fresh herbs, if desired, and enjoy!

Notes

*I made my packets pretty tight.  If you are having difficulty sealing off the packets, try using a slightly larger piece of parchment paper so you have more to work with.  (i.e. 7 x 10 inch piece)
