Equipment
Cast Iron Pan

Ingredients
175g pumpkin
1 small eggplant, cubed
1 red onion, sliced
1 red pepper, sliced
Handful baby leaf spinach
1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Balsamic vinegar

Method
Fire up your Ooni pizza oven. Aim for 500˚C (952˚F) on the stone baking board inside. You can check the temperature inside your Ooni quickly and easily using the Ooni Infrared Thermometer.

Add the olive oil to your Cast Iron Pan and place inside your oven to heat up. Once the oil is hot, remove the pan and add your eggplant, onion, red pepper, and pumpkin. Place the pan back in the oven and let the vegetables cook for 3-5 minutes, until soft and slightly charred.

Remove the pan and drizzle over the balsamic vinegar and honey. Serve over a bowl of baby leaf spinach, and top with a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds. Perfect hot or cold. Alternatively, use the roast veg as a tasty sandwich or wrap filler!
