5 Ways with Roasted Veg
Roasted veg can be made within half an hour (including chopping) and has so many uses that it’s a perfect way to boost your health!
To roast veg simply pre heat the oven to 220 electric/200 fan and chop an assortment of your favourite veg up into bitesize pieces. This could include:
- courgette
- aubergine
- carrot
- cauliflower
- pepper
- parsnip

Drizzle them in olive oil and bake for about 20 minutes.
You can then use them for these dishes:

Pile the roasted veg on top of your pasta and tomato based sauce. Mix all together
Wraps
Enjoy the veg with hummus, wraps and salad
Veg Bake
Keep the roasted veg in the oven tray and stir in a tin of tomatoes, cooked pasta (optional) and top with a drizzle of cheese. Bake for another 10 minutes
Salad
Stir the cooled vegetable mix though some strong tasting leaves such as spinach and rocket and top with basil and fresh chopped tomatoes
Soup
Once cooked blend the roasted vegetables adding a small amount of chopped tomato or stock if necessary.

Great, thanks. Also very tasty sprinkled with yeast flakes (great source of vit B, protein and fibre). Gives a lovely almost cheesy flavour. Available from some supermarkets (e.g. Waitrose Free From section). Or for added spicy crunch, toast sunflower seeds in oven for 5-10 minutes while the veg is cooking, stirring once or twice. Watch carefully cos they overdo easily. Transfer to a bowl and add a good dash or two of tamari/soy sauce and mix well. Serve the veg and sprinkle seeds on top. (The spiced seeds are also fabulous to snack on!)
