Roasted Vegetable and Feta Salad

Sharing is caring!

I hold my hands up I’m trying super hard to eat a more healthy diet… maybe even drop a few pounds and when I do this then salad is my go to meal. BUT… I don’t like boring salads I want one that feels like a total treat to eat, full of colour, bursting with flavour and packed with veggies. 

Make Roast Vegetable and Feta Salad your way

• Switch the roast veggies for any you like – peppers and aubergine work well here. 
• Add in some beans or pulses – tinned borlotti beans or chick peas are great. 
• Swap the cheese for mozzarella or skip it altogether for a vegan version (use vegan Balsamic)
• Add in some meat – try slices of salami or chicken breast tenders.

How to serve Roast Vegetable and Feta Salad

• Delicious as a laid back easy lunch, maybe add some fresh focaccia. 
• Take for packed lunch – let the veggies cool before adding to the salad and store the dressing separately to add just before eating
• Leftovers are great next day.
