1.   Preheat the oven to 180 C / 380 F

2.   Wash and pat dry all the vegetables

3.   Trim the end off each of the asparagus spears – either snap or cut off the dry section

4.   Trim the end off the zucchini, cut lengthwise into halves and then each half into thirds

5.   Cut the bell peppers in half and remove the seeds, cut into long finger-width strips

6.   Cut the large portobello cap into 1/3 inch (a bit less than 1 cm) widths – set aside

7.   Put all but the mushrooms into an elongated bowl

8.   Pour the oil onto the vegetables and toss to coat well

9.   Sprinkle on the garlic powder and toss

10.   Add half of the turmeric (1 teaspoon) and toss – do in two batches to get better distribution of the turmeric. Reserve the other teaspoon of the turmeric for the mushrooms.

11.   Place seasoned vegetables onto a baking sheet, set aside while preparing the mushrooms

12.   To the mixing bowl you used to season the other vegetables add 1 tbsp of melted butter and the reserved teaspoon of turmeric powder. Blend.

14.   Place in the middle position of the oven and roast for 8 minutes or until al dente, or a couple of minutes more for softer vegetables. Enjoy!
