Now you’re talking to an expert when it comes to charring. Almost everything I cook is charred.
Candy in salads, M&M’s would be good.
I microwave my veggies. Better ways to do it but microwaving is safest & no dish to wash. Just trying to get by until the “Jakeware” is available.

When I do them in the oven I use parchment paper on the cookie sheet or broiler pan (you can use aluminum foil). No pans, just dump the veggies onto the dish and throw the foil or paper away.
If you have to microwave may I suggest you make a light sauce of butter, garlic powder and lemon/pepper zest (or powder) by melting all in the microwave after you take out the veggies and then drizzle over the cooked veggies. Should taste better then just sprinkling any dried seasonings over the veggies. Do this with any food...fish or chicken and seasonings and you have made somewhat of a gourmet sauce. Takes about 10 seconds to melt the butter and seasonings in the micro. No measuring...just eyeball it.

Please use real butter if you can....the margarine or butter substitute is awful tasting.

In the meantime think about how big and where you want your chocolate pantry...Willy Wonka.

Will be eating out a lot this weekend....will regale you with my choices. Got a cool front and some rain today and these next 3 days are beautiful temps in the high 60s with the lowest dew point we have had in ages and bright sunshine.
