Roasted vegetable salad is perfect for a filling lunch or quick supper. Potato, leek, carrots, cauliflower you can add vegetables of your choice. Ready under 35 mins.
Vegetables tend to get boring for me. Specially if you are having a curry – that’s like the go to recipe of most Indian households. There are tonnes of variations of a vegetable curry, though. But I wanted to enjoy vegetables in a better way. Thought of roasting them, for a change, and making a salad out of it! Roasted Vegetable Salad sounds interesting, isn’t it?
I have been making loads of salads this entire month as a part of my Healthy Eating theme for the A to Z Challenge 2016. So a roasted vegetable salad fits perfectly into it.

It’s a pretty filling salad and I enjoyed it as my healthy lunch.
HEALTH BENEFIT
- It has the goodness of all the fresh vegetables
- I am using extra virgin olive oil and no butter – healthier!
- I am using fresh garlic chives from my balcony – every bit in the salad is fresh and healthy!
