I made this very colorful by using a purple eggplant, a white eggplant, a green pepper and a red pepper. I also threw in some garlic and some small peeled onions from the garden. I'm glad I added them, because even though I used both thyme and oregano, I think it would have been too bland for me withour the garlic and onions. This is a great combination of veggies for roasting; thanx!

Tasted good but the cooking time was way off - I cut my peppers into sixth's, and they still needed at least twice the cooking time. My eggplant pieces might have been a little larger than indicated in the recipe, but still took at least twice as long. (My oven is fairly new, and everything else gets done within the time indicated in the recipe instructions.) I was disappointed - still trying to find a recipe for those times we get eggplant in our CSA box!
