Zest and juice of 1 large lemon

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh parsley or basil for garnish

Optional: 1 cup cooked quinoa or brown rice for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli, red bell pepper, yellow zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and carrots.

      Make the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together minced garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
