    2 cups (500 mL) corn kernels, raw

    1 cup (250 mL) yellow onion, sliced thin

    3 Tbsp (45 mL) smoked paprika

    2 Tbsp (30 mL) cumin

    1 Tbsp (15 mL) garlic powder

  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss potato, zucchini, lentils, corn, and onion with paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and oil. Be sure to evenly coat the entire mixture with oil and spices and then spread evenly onto a parchment lined full sheet tray, or two if necessary.
