Ingredients:

2 tbsp olive oil
27g
3 large zucchini
900g
2 red onions
320g
1 cup fresh parsley
60g
2 tbsp vinegar
30g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Zucchini: Wash the zucchini thoroughly. Trim off the ends and cut them into thick rounds or half moons.
- Red Onions: Peel the red onions and cut them into wedges.
3. Toss with Olive Oil:
Place the cut zucchini and red onion wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper. Toss everything together to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated with the oil.
4. Roast the Vegetables:
Spread the zucchini and onion mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting.
5. Prepare the Parsley:
While the vegetables are roasting, wash and finely chop the fresh parsley. Set aside.
6. Mix the Salad:
Once the vegetables are roasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Transfer the roasted zucchini and onions to a serving bowl. Add the chopped parsley.
7. Dress the Salad:
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of vinegar over the salad. Toss gently to combine all ingredients well.
8. Adjust Seasoning:
Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
9. Serve:
Serve the roast zucchini salad warm or at room temperature as a delicious side dish or a light main.

Tips:

- Ensure that the zucchini and red onions are evenly cut to promote uniform roasting.

- For added flavor, consider adding a few cloves of garlic when roasting the vegetables.

- You can serve the salad warm or at room temperature; both ways are delicious.

- If you prefer a bit of crunch, toss in some toasted pine nuts or sunflower seeds just before serving.

- Feel free to experiment with other fresh herbs like basil, cilantro, or mint to change the flavor profile.
