How to Prepare Roasted Vegetables With Lemon-Cannelini Sauce [Vegan]

For the vegetables
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray.
  3. Combine the vegetables with the oil and salt and pepper to taste, tossing to coat.
  4. Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Roast the vegetables until tender and slightly caramelized, about 45 minutes, turning once about halfway through.
For the sauce
  1. While the vegetables are roasting, combine all the sauce ingredients (except for the optional herbs) in a food processor or blender and process until smooth.
  2. The amount of salt needed will depend on the saltiness of your broth.
  3. Transfer the sauce to a small saucepan and heat until hot, stirring so it doesn’t stick. Keep warm.
  4. To serve, transfer the vegetables to a large serving bowl and drizzle with the sauce. Sprinkle with herb of choice, if using. Serve hot.

  1. Hi heather !!!! Thanks for the loevly recipe !!!!! I wanted to know how much apple sauce you ad to the recipe It is missing on you website !!! I’m gonna try it for sure ! I had one quick pizza crust recipes, but it required 7-up (instead of the apple sauce). The apple sauce even if it doesn’t required a lot- is a lot better !!!! I thought the yeast needed something carbonated !!! Apparently not if the apple sauce works ! Thanks !
