To cook, simply open the package and spread the vegetables in a single layer on a grill pan, baking sheet, or directly on the grill grates. For grilling, aim for medium-high heat and cook for about 8-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred. When roasting, bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through. You can also sauté them in a pan with a little olive oil.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh, whole vegetables, this mix is pre-portioned and cut, saving considerable prep time. The specific combination of vegetables and seasonings offers a distinct Mediterranean flavor profile that might differ from other pre-cut vegetable blends.
