# Insider Tips:
01 -
- It creates the perfect balance between healthy greens and a comforting sweet treat.
- The caramelized edges offer a crunch that even vegetable skeptics will crave.
02 -
- Overcrowding the pan will steam the vegetables instead of roasting them.
- Watch the garlic closely during the final minutes to prevent a bitter burnt taste.
03 -
- Maple syrup is a fantastic alternative if you want a different woodsy flavor profile.
- Leftovers can be reheated in a skillet to regain some of the lost crispiness.
