This was adapted from Jugalbandi's blog and is not only delicious but beautiful! My 3 y/o wasn't quite won over (yet) but my 15 month old thought it was the bee's knees. You can easily sub different veggies, just chop 6-7 cups of veg total. Great, healthy veg side.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 red onion, quartered
2 yellow squash, sliced in coins
1 cup baby carrots, sliced lengthwise
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses (or balsamic vinegar)
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
handful fresh herb, chopped
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400.
2. Toss veggies with the olive oil, cayenne, cumin and coriander on a large baking sheet. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3. Roast veggies for 20 minutes or until crisp-tender.
4. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix pomegranate molasses (or balsamic), orange juice, lemon juice, lemon zest and herbs.
5. Toss with roasted veggies and serve.
