In this roasted vegetable salad, it is the tamari ginger dressing that ties everything together. The veggies are slightly caramelized bringing out their delicate flavor in this hearty vegan salad. Serve this super healthy salad as a main or side. Originally from onlyglutenfreerecipes.com, the recipe has since been removed from the site but is still fantastic. Note: this makes a great meal prep item if you roast the veggies, cool fully, then assemble minus dressing. Dress before eating.

Step 1

Mix together all dressing ingredients and set aside

Step 2

Mix roasting vegetables, olive oil, and salt/pepper in a large bowl ensuring vegetables are lightly coated.

Roast at 375 until vegetables are tender but not mushy- approximately 15-25 minutes.

Step 3

Allow roasted vegetables to cool slightly (or fully), before adding on top of greens in large salad bowl. Add tomato, avocado, hemp seeds, and desired amount of dressing. Toss to combine and serve.
