This is a wonderful side dish to serve alongside grilled chicken, steak, or simply served as an appetizer at happy hour. I love the tangy miso-yogurt sauce and have been drizzling it on everything! Grilled chicken, cooked lentils, steak and salmon. However, this version right here is my favorite. When paired with the sweet, earthy, caramelized vegetables it makes for a simple crowd pleasing side dish. Feel free to make a double batch as the sauce will keep in the fridge for up to one week and is great to have on hand to quickly jazz up any meal.
This platter of veggies can be served finger food style or you can fork and knife it on small plates. Go wild!
