- Heat oven to 425°F. Cut 1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes ($1.29/lb) into chunks. Slice 1 red bell pepper ($1.67), 1 yellow bell pepper ($1.67), 1 medium sweet onion ($1.39/lb), and 8 oz baby bella mushrooms ($3.29). Halve 8 oz Campari tomatoes ($3.99). Mince 5 garlic cloves ($0.69 each) and chop 1 tsp thyme and 2 tbsp parsley.
- Toss the potatoes with 1 tbsp oil, half the garlic, salt, pepper, and half the thyme. Spread on a sheet pan and roast 20 minutes.
- Season the 1.25 lb tri-tip roast ($6.99/lb sale) generously with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the roast 3-4 minutes per side until browned.
- Add the onion, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, remaining garlic, and remaining thyme around the roast. Season the vegetables lightly with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast 15-20 minutes until the tri-tip reaches your preferred doneness and the vegetables are softened and lightly caramelized.
- Rest the roast 10 minutes. Toss the roasted potatoes with chopped parsley. Slice the tri-tip against the grain and serve with the peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions, and potatoes.
