For best results, use fresh lime juice for a brighter flavor.
To prevent the vegetables from drying out during baking, you can add a tablespoon or two of water or broth to the bottom of the baking dish before adding the vegetables.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables based on your preference or what you have on hand. Bell peppers, zucchini, or broccoli would all work well.
If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, you can add a pinch of garlic powder to the poultry seasoning.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the honey-lime marinade.
