Try our tasty warmed flatbreads with spiced halloumi and roast vegetables for an easy midweek dinner idea.

Slice halloumi, brush lightly with a little harissa paste mixed with olive oil and cook in a hot griddle pan.

Then simply toss in with the roasted Mediterranean vegetables and serve with warmed flatbreads – maybe a side of creamy tzatziki.

Roasted Veggies with Sausages

Serve your roasted Mediterranean vegetables with sticky sausages.

Add the sausages to a roasting tin, drizzle with honey and cook in the oven for around 30 minutes, serve in chunky slices on top of the roasted Mediterranean vegetables.

Add a side of crusty French baguette to mop up any juices. Turn this into a simple vegetarian dinner idea by using vegetarian sausages.

Roast Mediterranean Vegetables with Pasta

Serve your roasted Mediterranean vegetables with pasta.

Simply cook up some fresh pasta and then toss the freshly cooked penne straight into the roast veggies pan – stir to coat the pasta in the juices.

Scatter with Parmesan cheese or baby mozzarella balls. Easy vegetarian dinner idea.

Roast Mediterranean Vegetables Bruschetta

Use your roasted Mediterranean vegetables to top bruschetta.

Simply toast slices of ciabatta or sourdough loaf, rub the surface with raw garlic and a drizzle of fruity olive oil then top with the roasted veg and drizzle with a little olive oil.

Scatter over torn basil leaves.

Delicious vegetarian bruschetta are great with a glass or two of red wine.

Roast Mediterranean Vegetables with Rice

Serve your roasted Mediterranean vegetables with added spice!

Add half tsp of cumin, coriander and cinnamon to your roast-veg mix before roasting, then serve with a portion of fluffy basmati rice and a spoonful of lemon and coriander yogurt for a simple vegetarian dinner idea.
