Roasted Asparagus, Yellow Squash, Carrots and Red Onion image

This was adapted from Jugalbandi's blog and is not only delicious but beautiful! My 3 y/o wasn't quite won over (yet) but my 15 month old thought it was the bee's knees. You can easily sub different veggies, just chop 6-7 cups of veg total. Great, healthy veg side.
