- 300 g carrots cut into 1cm pieces
- 300 g brussel sprouts
- 300 g white potatoes extra small or cubed into 1 inch pieces
- 100 g rocket
- 100 g greek feta crumbled
- 1 Lebanese cucumber thinly sliced
- ¼ red onion thinly sliced
- ¼ cup almonds roughly chopped and toasted
- 2 tablespoon olive oil plus extra for roasting vegetables
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- sea salt
- pepper
Preheat your oven to 200C and line a large baking tray with baking paper.
Add the potatoes, carrots and Brussel sprouts to a steamer and steam for 10 minutes or until super soft.
Spread the veggies over the baking tray and use a glass to roughly smash them down. Drizzle with lots of olive oil and a good pinch of salt and pepper.
Transfer to an oven and roast for 25 - 30 minutes or until super crispy. Some Brussel sprouts may get a little black on the outside but they should be fine on the inside.
Add the rocket, feta, almonds, roasted veggies and onion to a large bowl. Shake the olive oil and balsamic vinegar together in a jar and pour over the salad when ready to serve. Enjoy!
- Roasting for Crispiness: Make sure the vegetables are spread out in a single layer on the baking tray to ensure they roast evenly and become crispy.
- Timing the Dressing: Add the dressing just before serving to keep the salad fresh and prevent the rocket from wilting.
