This recipe is incredibly versatile. Use up any vegetables that need eating up and taste good roasted. Ill switch things up all the time depending on what Ive got. I love eating the colours of the rainbow to ensure my family and I are getting a whole range of different nutrients. I save time by not pealing any of the vegetables and if you need to make this in advance just cook the night before and then store in an airtight container in the fridge. When you are ready to use just gently reheat in the oven for about 10 minutes. I bulk up this tray of vegetables with some leftover quinoa and will often serve it with some baked salmon, sausages, fish or at lunch time with a fried egg on. So delicious. So nourishing.
