We really enjoyed this! I love how colorful this dish was. The mix of spices and honey/balsamic came together very nicely . I used only 1/2 cup of olive oil and felt that was plenty, might try with a little less next time. I'm always on the lookout for ways to make vegetables more exciting. Thanks for posting a unique vegetable recipe!
