TasteBuds is a really great place for lunch - it's a bit pricey, but the fresh and quality ingredients are worth it! My favorite salad is the Roasted, Toasted and Grilled - roasted vegetables, pine nuts, carrots, grilled chicken and their homemade balsamic dressing on the side. But if I go on a Wednesday I'm always torn between the salad and the mini meatloaf.
This is my home version - you don't really need a recipe! It makes a really great dinner because you can use just about any leftover vegetables available in the fridge. Last night's chicken or pork or even a can of tuna would be good to top it off. Be liberal with the seasons and there is no reason for any additional dressing.
Roasted Veggie Salad
2 red peppers cut into 1 inch pieces
1/2 red onion sliced into wedges
1 bag tiny potatoes, halve the "big" ones
8oz mushrooms, quartered
any seasonings of your choice, today I used some Mr. Spice.
1 bag mixed greens
Heat oven to 450 degrees.
Toss the potatoes in olive oil and seasonings to coat. Put on rimmed baking sheet and into oven. Repeat with other vegetables. I keep each vegetable separate on the baking sheets due to different cooking times.
Allow vegetables to cool a bit before assembling salad.
