Roast Aubergine, Cherry Tomato and Broccoli Salad

Paleo / Vegan

This salad is absolutely delicious, healthy and the basic recipe is easily tweaked to add different ingredients and dressings.  When Tim and I ate this for the first time, we enjoyed it so much we had it again the next night!

This recipe is adapted from a recipe on waitrose.com

Ingredients

1 or 2 aubergine, cut into wedges
2 tbsp olive oil
150g cherry tomatoes
1 or 2 heads of broccoli to taste

1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tsp capers or olives chopped
2 tsp cider vinegar
A small handful of almonds crushed

30g feta, crumbled (optional)

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 220˚C, gas mark 8. Toss the aubergine with 1 tbsp oil, season and spread out on a roasting tray. Roast for 30 minutes, turning after 20 minutes and adding the tomatoes to the tray.

2. Meanwhile, mix the remaining oil with the garlic, capers/olives and vinegar. Cook the broccoli in boiling water for 2 minutes, drain, then toss with the dressing, adding the aubergine and tomatoes when they’re ready.

3. Pile everything onto a serving plate and scatter with feta and almonds. Serve immediately.
