    Over a medium heat in an oven-safe pan over medium Sauté the red bell pepper until it's slightly tender, this will take about 3 minutes.

Balsamic roasted vegetables

  • Step 1

    Pre heat your oven to 190’c and pick some of your favorite veggies. I like to use whole mini capsicums, mushrooms, red onion, zucchini and a couple of whole garlic cloves. For a good serving you want about three cups. In a bowl combine the veggies with around 3 Tbsp of oil free balsamic dressing, 2 Tsp Italian seasoning and salt and pepper, mix well. Roast them in the oven for around 30-40 minutes.

  • Step 2

    If you wish to add some protein and turn this into a powerful meal just add in some tempeh or chickpeas and serve it with a side of quinoa
