Ingredients

• 300 grams Butternut squash
• 2 medium Zucchini
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Red onion
• 200 grams Cherry tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 100 grams Baby spinach leaves
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Peel and cube the butternut squash into bite-sized pieces. Slice the zucchini into half-moons. Cut the red bell pepper into strips and the red onion into wedges.

Step 3

Spread the butternut squash, zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion onto the prepared baking tray. Add the cherry tomatoes whole.

Step 4

Drizzle the vegetables with 1.5 tablespoons of olive oil, sprinkle with ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat the vegetables evenly with oil and spices.

Step 5

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and lightly caramelized, tossing halfway through cooking.

Step 6

While the vegetables roast, rinse and dry the baby spinach leaves. Set them aside in a large salad bowl.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 0.5 tablespoon of olive oil and the lemon juice to make a simple dressing.

Step 8

When the roasted vegetables are done, allow them to cool slightly for 5 minutes before adding them to the salad bowl with the spinach leaves.

Step 9

Drizzle the lemon dressing over the vegetables and spinach. Toss gently to combine and coat the salad evenly.

Step 10

Serve the warm roasted veggie salad immediately. Enjoy as a standalone meal or pair with a lean protein if desired.
