Tapenade Toasts With Roasted Vegetables + Prep Tip

I’m no vegetarian, but I sure do like veggies. Any kind.
Even better is when they’re roasted. Golden, tender, sometimes just a little charred!
(I’ll be completely honest, I have to force down broccoli, but when it’s roasted–delish!)

Here I’ve roasted an Italian medley of veggies and topped toast that has been smothered with kalamata olive tapenade (a pesto-like condiment with olives, capers and parsley).

Prep Tip: When I roast veggies I go to all the trouble to clean, cut and cook so I always do extra while I have the mess out. I use the extra veg all week on different sandwiches, in my salads or pasta dishes. They are ready and keep well in the fridge.
