# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It turns simple vegetables into something sweet and savory with almost zero effort.
  • The cleanup is minimal since everything cooks on just one tray.
02 -
  • Overcrowding the tray will steam the vegetables instead of roasting them so give them space.
  • Adding the cherry tomatoes too early can make them burst before the potatoes are done.
03 -
  • Let the tray cool for just a few minutes so the vegetables firm up slightly.
  • Tossing the vegetables halfway through is crucial for even browning.
