Instructies

- 2.Roast the vegetables for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and lightly caramelized. While they roast, proceed with the next steps.

- 5.In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 30ml of olive oil, lemon juice, and chopped fresh parsley to create the dressing. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
