Layered Roasted Veggies with Goat Cheese

Amazing! This was just one comment I heard after serving this delectable dish.
I was sitting in the hair salon the other night thumbing through a magazine and came across this recipe. I made a few changes to the recipe and voila!! Rave reviews!
I took out the white beans and added cauliflower and sweet potatoes. The spice combo is spectacular!! I bought a large jar of Herbes-de-Provence at Marshall's Home Goods Store at a very good price. You can substitute Trader Joe's, 21 Seasoning Salute if you want.
I took a picture after everyone had dug into the dish so it's not such a beautiful display for the blog but the taste was "AMAZING"!! The smell that filled the house was equally amazing.

This veggie casserole can be changed up to cater to your tastes. I was baking for a crowd. If I was cooking for only me, I would have increased the sweet potatoes and eliminated the red potatoes. Brussel sprouts, broccoli, leeks could all be subbed into this recipe in any combination. Use your imagination and create your own unique layered roasted veggie dish.
What's your favorite roasted veggie?
