The combination of goats' cheese and roasted vegetables on a cool bed of couscous mixed with salad leaves and a spicy dressing is positively fabulous.

Provided by BonnieZ

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 small eggplant
2 medium zucchini
1 lb cherry tomatoes, skinned
1 small red pepper, de-seeded and cut into 1 inch (2.5 cm)
1 small fennel bulb, chopped
1 large onion, sliced and cut into 1 inch (2.5 cm)
2 fat garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves, torn so that they stay quite visible
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 ounces pitted black olives, chopped
1 tablespoon capers, drained
salt & freshly ground black pepper
10 ounces medium couscous
18 fluid ounces vegetable stock
4 ounces firm goat cheese
salt & freshly ground black pepper
3 ounces mixed salad greens or 3 ounces baby greens
4 fluid ounces extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons tomato puree
4 tablespoons lime juice (about 2 limes)
1 tablespoon black onion seeds

Steps:

  • First prepare the roasted vegetables: prepare the eggplant and zucchini ahead of time by cutting them into 1 inch (2.5 cm) dice, leaving the skins on. Then toss the dice in a level teaspoon of salt and pack them into a colander with a plate on top and a heavy weight on top of the plate. Leave them on one side for an hour so that some of the bitter juices drain out. After that, squeeze out any juices left, and dry the dice thoroughly in a clean cloth. Preheat the oven to gas mark 9, 475°F (240°C).
  • Now arrange the eggplant, zucchini, tomatoes, pepper, fennel and onion in the roasting pan or sheet pan, sprinkle with the crushed garlic, basil and olive oil, toss everything around in the oil to get a good coating and season with salt and pepper. Place the pan on the highest shelf of the oven for 30-40 minutes or until the vegetables are toasted brown at the edges.
  • When the vegetables are done, remove them from the oven and stir in the chopped olives and the capers then remove them to a plate to cool.
  • When you're ready to assemble the salad, first place the couscous in a large, heatproof bowl, then pour the boiling stock over it, add some salt and pepper, stir it with a fork, then leave on one side for 5 minutes, by which time it will have absorbed all the stock and softened.
  • Meanwhile cut the cheese into sugar cube-sized pieces. Make up the dressing by whisking all the ingredients together in a bowl, then pour into a serving container. To serve the salad, place the couscous in a large, wide salad bowl and gently fork in the cubes of cheese along with the roasted vegetables. Next arrange the salad leaves on top and, just before serving, drizzle a little of the dressing over the top followed by a sprinkling of onion seeds and pass the rest of the dressing around separately.

Provided by Mary Jenny

Categories     Nuts

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 medium sized eggplant, peel on and large diced
1 tablespoon kosher salt or 1 tablespoon sea salt
1 cup cherry tomatoes, washed and left whole
1 medium sized zucchini, peel on and large diced
6 white button mushrooms, quartered
6 garlic cloves, peeled, trimmed and sliced
1/2 medium sized red onion, peeled and cut into wedges
1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cups almond milk (Almond Breeze)
1 teaspoon tbsp olive oil (15 mL)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
3 sprigs fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
  • In a large flat pan or baking sheet, salt the eggplant slices generously on all sides, toss to coat evenly and hold for 30 minutes to release excess moisture and bitterness.
  • Drain and rinse the eggplant and toss into a large mixing bowl. Add in the tomatoes, zucchini, mushrooms, garlic and onions. Generously drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and season with salt, and pepper, stir to coat. Transfer the vegetables to an ovenproof pan lined with tin foil. Roast the vegetables in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes or until soft, caramelized and fork tender. Stir or flip the vegetables about 10 - 15 minutes into the roasting process to avoid sticking to the pan. Remove the pan from the oven and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, rinse the farro with water and drain in a colander over the sink. Add the farro to a 3-quart (3L) saucepot and add in the Almond Breeze. Season with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Bring the liquid to boil over medium high heat, and then turn down the heat to a low simmer to avoid spilling over. Simmer the farro for 20 minutes with the lid to the pot cocked to one side to let out steam. Turn off the heat but leave the pot on the stovetop and close the lid. Steam in the pot for another 5 minutes or until the farro is soft but slightly chewy in the centre. Remove the lid and fluff with a fork.
  • When ready to assemble the dish, combine the cooked farro with the vegetables in a large serving dish and gently toss to mix. Whisk together the olive oil with the balsamic vinegar and drizzle over the farro salad. Toss to coat and season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lemon. Serve warm.

  • Potatoes and Carrots: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush a baking sheet with olive oil. Toss potatoes and carrots into a mixture of fresh rosemary leaves, salt and cracked pepper and lay them cut side down on a baking sheet. Brush with olive oil and bake until potatoes are toasted brown, and carrots are tender- about 30 minutes.
  • Peppers and Tomatoes Heat the broiler. Halve tomatoes lengthwise. Place whole peppers and halved tomatoes on a baking sheet as close to the flame as possible. Allow skin to blacken, turn when needed. Remove from the oven and close peppers in a brown paper bag to steam. When cool, peel and remove seeds and core. Slice peppers into 1/2-inch slices. Leave tomatoes halved.
  • Onions, and Mushrooms: Prepare grill. Brush onions and portobellos with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until soft. Slice mushrooms into 1/2-inch slices.
  • Salad: Whisk together dressing ingredients. Toss with grilled vegetables. Garnish with sprigs of rosemary or fresh basil leaves. Serve with a hot, crusty loaf of peasant bread.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 acorn, delicata, or other winter squash (about 1 1/2 pounds)
12 ounces assorted fingerling potatoes
1 bunch baby carrots (or 3 medium carrots)
2 medium leeks
1/2 pound brussels sprouts
1 medium celeriac
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon plus a pinch freshly ground pepper
1 bunch baby beets, peeled, and cut in half
5 ounces baby kale, curly endive, or other hearty greens
Warm Roasted Garlic Dressing
4 ounces aged goat cheese or Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Cut squash crosswise in 1/4-inch rings, and remove seeds. Place in a large bowl, and set aside. Cut potatoes in half, lengthwise, and place in bowl with squash. Trim greens from carrots, and peel. (If using large carrots, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch coins.) Add to squash.
  • Trim roots from leeks, leaving end intact; cut off greens from leeks, and cut in half lengthwise. Wash well, then cut into long, thin wedges. Add to squash mixture.
  • Cut brussels sprouts in half, and add to bowl. Peel celeriac, and cut into 1/4-inch wedges; add to bowl.
  • Drizzle vegetables with 4 tablespoons olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss until well combined. Arrange in a single layer on two large rimmed baking sheets. Place beets in same bowl, drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Toss again. Add to baking sheet with vegetables.
  • Roast until golden brown and tender, about 45 minutes, tossing halfway through to ensure even browning. Remove from oven, and let cool slightly on baking sheets.
  • Place greens on plates or platter and arrange vegetables over. Drizzle with warm dressing. Shave cheese thinly with a vegetable peeler, and garnish the salad with it. Serve immediately.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Quick & Easy Recipes

Yield Makes about 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 garlic head
1/3 cup white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap garlic in foil. Roast until very tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Let cool slightly. Can be refrigerated in an airtight container overnight.
  • Cut the garlic head in half crosswise. Squeeze pulp into a small saucepan, and place over medium-low heat. Whisk in vinegar and rosemary. Gradually add oil, whisking constantly. Use immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose firm vegetables for roasting, such as broccoli, carrots, Brussels sprouts, and sweet potatoes.
  • Cut vegetables into uniform-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
  • Toss vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting. This will help them caramelize and brown.
  • Roast vegetables at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit or higher) for a shorter amount of time. This will help them retain their nutrients and flavor.
  • Once roasted, vegetables can be served immediately or cooled and stored in the refrigerator for later use.

Conclusion:

Roasted vegetable salad is a healthy and delicious dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or main course. It is a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables. With its vibrant colors and flavors, roasted vegetable salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
