1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil, or more to taste
10 fresh asparagus spears, trimmed to 5 inches

1 bunch green onions, tops trimmed a few inches
1 large red bell pepper, cut lengthwise into 4 sections and seeded

Remove vegetables to the baking sheets used for preparation and cool.
