Oven roasted vegetable with lots of garlic and fresh herbs, then simply drizzled with olive oil, salt and pepper. Simple, healthy, super delicious! The garlic becomes soft and buttery, make sure to have a crusty baguette to spread it on and to soak up the heavenly juices! Makes a great summer dinner along with some sweet ripe melon!
