- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Cut veggie into even wedges (almost impossible, picture proves that) and toss with olive oil.
- Lay out on lightly greased cookie sheet. Sprinkle with choice seasoning.
- Roast in middle rack for about 20 minutes, tossing half way, or until lightly browned on edges.
