I’m taking a break from all baked goods all the time, to show you what we actually eat most nights. As much as I love baking, I equally love roasting vegetables. I don’t show you all the combos I make because roasting veggies is really simple, but today, I have something fun. Marzetti has come up with a line of finishing sauces to flavor your cooked veggies.Simple blend of roasted broccoli, cauliflower, and zucchini flavored with dollops of Marzetti Lemon Basil finishing sauce. | Persnickety Plates ADHowever you like to cook them – steam, boil, roast, microwave – Marzetti Veggie Drizzle has a flavor to liven up your veggies.

If corn, carrots, or asparagus are on your menu – Garlic Parmesan would be great. Need a little spice on your peas & mushrooms? Try the Thai Chili. Looking for a little sweet and savory? Maybe the Honey Balsamic sounds good to you.

The great thing is, you can set each flavor on your table along with the cooked veggies, and let your family decide which flavor they want to add. Because you put it on after the vegetables are cooked, you don’t have to commit to just one flavor. Let the kids add some zig zags of flavor to their plate.

You’ll be able to find these flavors in the refrigerated section of your grocery store (you know, by the pre-cut items) so pick up whichever one suits your fancy.

    Lemon basil – we have lots growing in the garden, so I am disappointed to find the recipe lists a commercial, already made-up sauce. I am always looking for fresh herb recipes as we grow many herbs.

    • Melissa Williams says

      Not everyone has access to fresh herbs – I have a groundhog that ate my entire garden – so these sauces are a great option. There are several other roasted veggies recipes on my site made “from scratch”.
