'This was quick to pull together, once the vegetables were prepared. It was colourful, tasty and had a good mixture of textures - the honey in the dressing went well, too.'

    Really nice and easy- this has become a staple dinner over the winter. I'm not a huge parsnip fan though, so halved the parsnip amount and we still get huge bowls full for dinner.

    Delicious all-in-one meal. Easy to prepare and cook even when you have a family. We particularly enjoyed it with the feta as the tanginess complimented the sweetness of the honey and the sourness of the vinegar. Will definitely make again!

    Yum yum yum! was great cold the next day too... threw in a few chunks of beetroot & Parmesan shavings to make it a bit different. A great recipe that can be easily modified to suit.

    Scrumptious. Added some sliced chicken as well, which just added to the flavour. Slight twist - roasted the veg etc then added the honey but with some tsp or so of wholegrain mustard then tossed in strips of raw steak for last 5 mins or so. Great quick after shopping dinner.

    I've made this several times for friends and family and it's always been a hit. I offer crumbled feta, goats' cheese or stilton in separate bowls so everyone can add what they want. I do think it needs the extra cheese, and it's not the biggest meal (perhaps I'm just greedy) but is perfect if you're served a rich starter first.
