3 lbs. (7-8 medium) zucchini, cut into 1" rounds

2 red or yellow bell peppers, cut into 1" squares

1 medium red onion, cut into 1/2" wedges

2 T. olive oil

2 t. coarse salt

1/2 t. ground pepper

Preheat oven to 475 degrees.  Combine vegetables on a rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.

Roast until vegetables are tender and browned in spots, 20-35 min.

(If you like, save 4 c. of roasted vegetables for use in a Zucchini Frittata later in the week.)

Serves 8 (or 4 servings if reserving vegetables for Zucchini Frittata).
