ROAST VEG
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the halved baby carrots on one side of a roasting tray, and the cauliflower pieces on the other side. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway). When there are 3-5 minutes remaining, sprinkle the chopped Almonds over the cauliflower and roast for the remaining time.
STUFFED Chicken
Pat the Chicken breast dry with paper towel and place on a chopping board. Using a sharp knife, slice into one side of the chicken, starting at the thicker end and ending at the thin point (do not cut all the way through). Open up the chicken so that it resembles a butterfly. Cover with cling wrap and pummel with a rolling pin or bottle to create an even thickness. Season the inside of the chicken. Layer 2-3 tomato rounds and the grated mozzarella onto one side of the chicken. Fold the other side over the filling to close it back up.
GOLDEN CHICKY
Place the stuffed Chicken on a separate roasting tray. Coat the outside of the chicken with a drizzle of oil and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until cooked through and golden, 12-15 minutes.
SALAD STEP
In a salad bowl, combine the mustard, the balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of olive oil, a sweetener, and seasoning. Toss through the rinsed green leaves, the roasted cauli & Almonds, and the drained pickled peppers.
