Ingredients

For the Vegetables

1 large Zucchini Adds bulk and texture; substitute with yellow squash for variation.
1 head Broccoli Provides nutrients and crunch; use cauliflower for a different flavor and texture.
2 cups Green Beans Adds color and texture; snap peas can be used as an alternative.

For the Seasoning

2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil Used for roasting and flavoring; sesame oil can be utilized for an Asian twist.
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Enhances depth of flavor; fresh garlic can be substituted for a more robust taste.
1 teaspoon Onion Powder Adds sweetness and aroma; shallots can be used in place of onion powder.
1 teaspoon Chili Flakes Offers heat and spice; use paprika for a milder taste.
1 teaspoon Sea Salt Enhances the overall flavor; regular table salt may be used but reduce quantity to taste.

For the Garnish

2 tablespoons Sesame Seeds For crunch and garnish; pumpkin seeds can replace for a nut-free option.

For the Base

1 cup Butter Bean Dip Creamy base for vegetables; chickpea or hummus can substitute if desired.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F). Brush a baking tray lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
Slice the large zucchini and break the broccoli into florets. Spread them evenly across the oiled baking tray.
Combine extra virgin olive oil with garlic powder, onion powder, chili flakes, and sea salt. Brush the mixture onto the veggies.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for 10 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Add the trimmed green beans on top of the roasted veggies and brush with remaining oil mixture. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Return to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes until the green beans are tender and vibrant.
Serve by spreading butter bean dip on a plate and arranging the roasted vegetables on top. Garnish with extra sesame seeds.
