This is my entry for the Salad Sammie Challenge in Sherri's SSS Group... It can be either a wrap or a salad on a plate, and it's so darn healthy it scares me...think the body went into shock when I ate all these veggies cause it's just not used to this kind of fare! Give it a look and a try...amounts can be increased or decreased according to the size of the group you're feeding...

How To Make spicy roasted veggie wrap

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 400°F. *Note: Can also do roasting on your gas/charcoal grill.
  • Step 2
    Combine all your seasonings and spices together in mortar & pestle; mix together well, using the pestle to crush them together. Set aside.
  • Step 3
    Clean and cut up all vegetables and mushrooms. Put them in a large Ziploc bag & drizzle in the olive oil. Close bag, work it around with your hands until oil is all over veggies.
  • Step 4
    Dump out veggies on a sheet pan (10” x 15” 1”) into a single layer. With your fingers, sprinkle the blended seasonings evenly over vegetables.
  • Step 5
    Place pan on rack in top third of oven and bake about 7-9 min.; using a spatula, turn veggies over. Bake another 5-10 min., until tender but not mushy. Personally, I like mine more crisp-tender and with these times, they were a little overcooked to my taste, so you could adjust the times to suit yourself.
  • Step 6
    Cut up some sourdough bread or stale buns into cubes (I used some stale kaiser rolls). Heat about 1 Tbsp. garlic-infused olive oil and 1½ Tbsp. unsalted butter in oven-safe skillet. Sprinkle in some Italian Seasoning and stir to combine.
  • Step 7
    Put the skillet on rack in center of oven @ 400°F for about 5-7 minutes, stirring every few minutes to brown evenly without burning. When done, remove and set aside to cool.
  • Step 8
    Arrange 4-6 romaine lettuce leaves on a plate; spoon vegetables in center of lettuce leaves. Garnish with a few croutons and sprinkle with cheese. Enjoy!
