Directions

  1. PREHEAT oven to 450°F and LINE a large, rimmed baking sheet with foil. PLACE it in the oven while it preheats.

  3. For the Vegetables: Meanwhile, TOSS sweet potato, onion, zucchini, and squash with oil, salt, and black pepper. REMOVE baking sheet from the oven and COAT generously with non-stick cooking spray. SPREAD vegetables out evenly onto prepared baking sheet.

RETURN baking sheet to oven and COOK an additional 5 minutes.
