Chef's Tips
Feel free to substitute other vegetables such as bell peppers, zucchini, or Brussels sprouts.
Add chickpeas or other beans for extra protein.
The salad can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Dressing may thicken upon refrigeration, so whisk in a little water before serving.
For a more intense flavor, you can roast the vegetables with a pinch of smoked paprika.
