Balsamic Roasted Vegetables

This recipe comes from The Next Food Network Star and was featured in the Bon Appétit magazine. I tried it out for a Sunday dinner and EVERYBODY raved over it. My sister even sent me a text later in the evening thanking me for the awesome dinner and said she was going to have fanciful dreams about it all night. She especially loved the vegetables. (WOW.) When I made it I served it with a simple grilled teriyaki chicken and jasmine rice. Unfortunately I didn't take a photo after it was baked, but you get the idea. It's a yummy recipe! There were no leftovers.
