Baked vegtables

You will need
Vegetables: any you like. I prefer potatoes onions and garlic, but you can use anything really (eggplants, sweet potatoes, you can even use non vegetables like mushrooms. this might work with minerals as well. haven't tried yet).

Olive oil: just a dab. You can use cheaper oil if you want. Don't use motor oil, it tastes bad.

Aluminum foil: if you don't have any lying around the house, go find a hookah smoking friend. He'll have some.

Toaster oven: to bake you need an oven, no getting around this one.

Seasoning: I like sweet paprika, garlic powder and of course salt and pepper. But you can use whatever seasoning you like/have around the house. Experiment. Fresh thyme improves this dish a lot. But what student has an herb garden?

A bowl or pot for mixing.

The experiment (long version)
Wash and chop up all the veggies into bite sized chunks. (Potatoes should be in peeled slices, onions are good as rings, garlic cloves should be separated and peeled etc.).

Throw all veggies into the bowl/pot. Top them with a bit of olive oil (just enough to oil the veggies on all sides, no need to drown them).

Add seasoning (again don't over do it. just enough to give all veggies a light coating. no more).

Mix up the veggies oil and seasoning with your hands until all veggies are well coated. (Caution, this step gets messy; only perform under adult supervision and near a source of running water).

Get the aluminum foil, cut a piece that is a little bigger the twice the size of your oven's cocking plate thing.

Pour all the veggies on the foil; if they seem dry add some olive oil. Close the foil over the veggies (like wrapping a gift - a gift for yourself). Now stick that baby in the oven.

Let it bake for about 30 minutes then open the foil and check with a fork to see if it's done (should poke through any vegetable easily). If you like you can open up the top of the foil and bake for 5-10 more minutes to give your veggies a bit of crispiness.

Smoke coming out of your oven at any point is not a good sign. Neither are open flames or an alien invasion.

When the baking is done take the foil out of the oven and pour the baked vegetables out into a microwave-safe container. You will be reheating this for the rest of the week.

The cliff notes (short version)
Chop up veggies. Coat in olive oil and seasoning. Place on aluminum foil. Close foil. Bake for 30 minutes. Open top of foil. Bake 5-10 more minutes. Done.

Lessons learned
Don't bake without oil, unless you like fire alarms.

Don't microwave aluminum foil, ever.

No, really. Don't.
