When you need a vegetable side dish for your Italian meal in a pinch, don't worry about slow-roasting any veggies! This is a great method of cooking vegetables super quickly, and thanks to ingredients like oregano, garlic and vinegar, it has a bright Italian flavor that I love. You can really use up just about any odds-and-ends of veggies in your fridge (or freezer, for that matter) in this recipe, so it's wonderful for a kitchen clean-out type of dinner. I love topping it with roasted slivered almonds, because it gives such a welcome crunch and toasty flavor.

The recipe calls for white balsamic vinegar, but you can use just about any vinegar you have. Apple cider or white wine vinegar are great too.

Sprinkle with the almonds and serve over rice if desired.
