Simply Italian Roasted Vegetables

This is one of my favorite ways to prepare vegetables. I love simple recipes made with only a few ingredients. I used to make this with top Ramen all the time when I was in college. Today, I serve the vegetables with rice, pasta, tortillas or just meat like salmon. Leftovers make a great omelet.

Variety of bell peppers (orange, yellow, red)
Red Onion, Sliced
Asparagus
Salt
Pinch black pepper
1 tablespoon Olive Oil

Warm oil in a pan. Add your choice of vegetables. Season to taste with salt, pepper and garlic. Saute over medium to medium-high heat until slightly tender but still crunchy. I like mine burned a little bit.

Variations:
This can also be baked in the oven. Roast at 350 degrees. Toss vegetables with oil and seasonings. Spread out on a baking sheet and back until slightly tender but still crunchy and a little blackened on the edges.
To add some heat throw in a dash of red pepper flakes.
Add a few cherry tomatoes.
