These vegetables are a nice complement to any dish and the recipe is very versatile. I used broccoli, carrots, green onions and snow peas. I also made one big 'pack' and used aluminum foil instead of parchment paper, as I did them on the BBQ. I think the veggies could use a little 'umph' and perhaps a bit of garlic would help them out or some more herbs/spices. Made for went to the market.
