    Roasted Vegetable Tray

    A Roasted Vegetable Tray is a simple yet tasty way to consume more vegetables and receive the health benefits they provide. This side dish pairs perfectly with a protein of your choice.

    Let’s be real here, ​we ALL need more vegetables in our lives! 😉 Any time that weight loss is a goal, I live off of these veggie trays. It’s an easy yet delicious way to get those vegetables in and you can’t ignore the fiber, vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients that offer SO many health benefits. A roasted vegetable tray can literally be anything you want them to be and that’s what I love most about them. They can be low carb or provide enough carbs for weight maintenance, whatever your weight goal is these trays will fit into that plan. I’m so into playing with all different kinds of herbs and seasonings, the more creative you are the better.

    The key to vegetable consumption is variety! Think of it this way, you essentially want to eat the rainbow and you will consume all of the variety that you need. The reason for this is that each of the different colored vegetables offer different vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients. For those of you that don’t know, phytonutrients are health beneficial compounds found in fresh fruits and vegetables. Trust me, you want ALL of them. The health benefits of phytonutrients range from improving eye health to cancer prevention!

    Hi, I'm Andrea!

    I’m a Registered Dietitian from Orange County, CA.  Nutrition is my number one obsession in life and nothing rocks my world more than helping others by sharing my passion with them. I’m a true California girl! So when I’m not Dietitianing, you’ll find me in a body of water or on a dirt trail, always rockin’ a sweet pair of shades (because eye health is important too), and playing my favorite tunes. If I’m not there, there’s a 100% chance I’m snugglin’ with my fur baby, Stella!
