Can anyone recommend an alternative to olive oil that isn't too processed? Mainly for roasting veggies and cooking omelettes etc

Why isn't olive oil acceptable for roasting vegetables and cooking omelettes?6

All oils are processed.. They aren't just naturally flowing around. But if anything, look into extra virgin olive oils, coconut oil or another seed oil (although these all get really expensive).2
-
Grapeseed oil has a higher smoke point, which means it can withstand higher temperatures. It's also, as the PP points out, hella expensive. Like, it's probably the ideal oil for deep frying, except for its tendency to bankrupt the user when used in large quantities.4

I use coconut oil for different things when cooking.0

Butter. You can even make your own at home.0

We'd have to know what your problem is with olive oil to recommend a good alternative for you.8

I love coconut oil for roasted and grilled veggies- I think it really brings out the natural sweetness of the veggies. I also use it for meat and seafood (especially shrimp) and popcorn. If you don't like a strong olive oil taste, extra light olive oil does the same job without adding a ton of flavor.1

Avocado oil is better/more stable for cooking @ higher temps than olive oil. Olive oil is better for topping already cooked foods (salads, etc).
I’m Greek; olive oil is in my blood, lol1 -
I like coconut oil purely because it is easier to measure out by gram than is any liquid oil.0

You would think that, wouldn't you? Doesn't seem to be stopping other folks, though.2 -

I gave my answer because butter is always the answer. Circumstance doesn't matter.11 -

I make an amazing filet mignon that is sauteed in butter and olive oil (2:1 ratio). And then I wrap it in bacon. So beat that.3 -
