Roasting brings out the sweetness in these vegetables, which complements the tangy vinegar and salty olives. In just under 40 minutes your guests can spoon this flavorful side on their plates. Having a room temperature vegetable dish takes the pressure off of mealtime since temperature is not essential to the success fo this recipe. Make a double batch on the weekend to serve during the week with roasted poultry or stirred into your favorite cooked whole wheat pasta. Take these veggies along to your next potluck event for a striking addition to the array of dishes or serve at your own backyard fete with grilled meat or poultry.
