Roasted Vegetables Dry
Your roasted vegetables are dry and shriveled because they cooked too long or lacked oil. Add moisture and finish with fat.

The fix
Tap a step to check it off.
- 1 toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a squeeze of lemon
- 2 add 2 tablespoons warm broth and cover for 2 minutes to steam
- 3 finish with herbs for freshness
If it's still wrong
- Blend into a soup or sauce.
- Chop and mix into a grain bowl with dressing.
Prevent next time
- Roast at 425F and check early.
- Use enough oil to coat evenly.
Notes
Why this works
Steam rehydrates the vegetables and oil adds lubrication, making them taste tender again without turning them mushy.
