In a large bowl, toss the cut vegetables with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, rosemary, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

After 20 minutes of roasting the vegetables, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Push the vegetables to the sides to make space in the center.

Chef's Tips
- •For an extra touch of freshness, add a few chopped fresh mint leaves to the dill-yogurt sauce.
- •If you don't have fresh dill, use dried dill (about half the amount) or substitute with fresh parsley.
- •Ensure the vegetables are cut into equal-sized pieces for even cooking.
