Dear people of Lekkernassûh,

In next week’s package, you will get the best for roasted vegetables! You can toss the red bell pepper, the mushrooms, and the tomatoes until nice and golden in the oven, or on a grill. While this bakes, you can prep a sauce with some mustard, garlic, vinegar, olive oil, and chopped dill. Then, get some slices of delicious sourdough bread (also available at the Wednesday market 🙂 ), spread the sauce on it, and top it with the roasted vegetables. Perfect for a snack or as a side of a more hearty meal!

Please don’t forget to update your status by 8 pm on Sunday if necessary. Enjoy your meal!
