READY WITH THE VEGGIE?
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the cauliflower pieces and the sweet potato pieces in a small baking dish. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
COOKING UP A STORM
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the chopped onion and fry until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Pour in the passata and simmer until slightly reduced, 6-8 minutes. Add ½ the chopped oregano, a sweetener, and seasoning.
MMMELTED CHEESE
When the veg is done, pour the tomato sauce over the roasted veg and toss until coated. Sprinkle over the grated cheese and bake until the cheese is melted, 5-7 minutes.
CRUMBILICIOUS!
Return the pan, wiped down, to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When melted, add the Italian crumb and the almonds. Fry until browned, 1-2 minutes (shifting occasionally).
GO WITH THE GREENS
In a bowl, combine the shredded salad leaves, the cucumber pieces, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
