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
1 cup cracked farro
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.

WARM ROASTED VEGETABLE SALAD WITH SESAME-CITRUS VINAIGRETTE



WARM ROASTED VEGETABLE SALAD WITH SESAME-CITRUS VINAIGRETTE image

Categories     Vegetable

Number Of Ingredients 19

12 asparagus spears, cut into 2 inch pieces
4 plum tomatoes, quartered
1 carrot, cut into 1/4 inch thick rounds
1 fennel bulb, cut into eight chunks, reserve the fronds
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 cups baby spinach leaves, washed and spun dry
Sesame-citrus Vinaigrette:
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons sesame oil
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
1 shallot, minced
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons white sesame seeds, lightly toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Arrange the asparagus, tomatoes, carrot rounds and fennel chunks in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, salt and the pepper. Using your hands, toss the vegetables to evenly coat. Roast in the oven for 15 minutes. Place the spinach leaves in a large bowl. Immediately stir the hot roasted vegetables into the spinach to wilt the spinach slightly. To prepare the dressing, in a small bowl whisk together the lemon juice, oils and soy sauce until well combined and slightly thickened. Stir in the ginger, shallot, honey, salt pepper and sesame seeds. Pour the dressing over the vegetables in the bowl and gently toss to coat. Evenly divide the salad onto serving plates and garnish if desired with the reserved fennel fronds.

Tips:

  • Choose a variety of vegetables: To ensure a flavorful and colorful salad, select a mix of vegetables with different textures and flavors. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, zucchini, bell peppers, and sweet potatoes.
  • Roast the vegetables properly: Roasting brings out the natural sweetness and caramelizes the edges of the vegetables. To achieve the best results, toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting at a high temperature (425°F or 220°C) for 20-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
  • Make a flavorful dressing: A well-made dressing can elevate the salad and bring all the flavors together. Consider using a simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey. Alternatively, try a creamy dressing made with Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and herbs.
  • Add some crunch: To add an extra layer of texture and flavor, incorporate crunchy elements into the salad. Roasted nuts (such as almonds or walnuts), seeds (such as pumpkin or sunflower seeds), or crumbled cheese (such as feta or goat cheese) can all add a delightful crunch.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature: Roasted vegetable salads are best served warm or at room temperature. This allows the flavors to meld and the vegetables to retain their roasted aromas and flavors.

Conclusion:

Warm roasted vegetable salads offer a symphony of flavors and textures, making them a versatile and satisfying dish. With a combination of vibrant roasted vegetables, a flavorful dressing, and optional crunchy elements, these salads are perfect for lunch, dinner, or as a side dish. Experiment with different vegetables, dressings, and toppings to create your own unique and delicious salad variations. Enjoy the burst of flavors and the health benefits that come with each bite!
