Ingredients

Dressing

3 tablespoons of Pesto
3 tablespoons Lime Juice
½ teaspoon Dijon Mustard
1 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes

Roasted Vegetables

1 head Cauliflower
1 medium Zucchini
3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt & Black Pepper to taste

Salad

2 cups Mixed Salad Greens - chopped
2 large Tomatoes - diced
1 Red Onion - julienne cut
1 Green Sweet Pepper - julienne cut
1 cup Feta Cheese - cubed
1x15 oz can Black Beans - strained & rinsed

Instructions

Dressing

Using a small bowl whisk all the dressing ingredients together and put aside to marinate.

Roasted Vegetables

Preheat the oven to 400° F / 204° C, place a rack in the middle of the oven and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Slice the cauliflower and zucchini into large bite-sized chunks, then place into a bowl and coat them with oil.

Place the chunks onto the baking sheet, season with salt and black pepper, and bake for 5-10 min, then turn them and bake for another 5-10 min or until the edges are crispy.

Remove from the oven and set aside until cool to the touch, or add them to the salad while warm.

The cauliflower can be added to the salad as bite-sized pieces or chopped down to a grain-like texture resembling quinoa or couscous if you prefer.

Salad

Add all the cut-up salad ingredients to a large bowl along with the roasted cauliflower and zucchini and toss to combine.

Pour the dressing over the ingredients and toss again to coat the ingredients thoroughly.

Serve in bowls and enjoy.
