Ingredients

    Marinade:
    2 cloves garlic, chopped
    2 T chopped fresh thyme (or 2 tsp. dried)
    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    1 T olive oil

    Veggies:
    8 asparagus stalks, trimmed
    8 scallions, trimmed
    2 Italian eggplant or 1 medium eggplant, halved then cut into rounds
    2 med. zucchini, cut on a bias

    Sauce:
    12 oz. jar roasted red peppers, drained (~ 1 1/2 cups)
    1/3 cup fat free chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
    1 large clove garlic, minced
    3 T. chopped chives, plus 1T for garnish
    1T balsamic vinegar

Directions

Whisk garlic, thyme, lemon juice and olive oil in a bowl, set aside.

Prepare your vegetable and put them in a large bowl. Dump dressing over the top and use your hands to get them coated.

Spray a large cookie sheet with cooking spray then lay the veggie out in a single layer on the sheet.

Roast veggies in oven approx. 20 mins until just cooked and starting to brown. If they are not browing well, put them under your broiler for a minute.

Put on a platter.

While veggies are roasting, combine all the sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.

Drizzle sauce over veggies, sprinkle with reserved chives and serve.
