Notes

For best results, cut veggies uniformly to ensure even cooking. You can substitute honey with agave syrup for a vegan option, and feel free to add nuts or experiment with spices for a personal touch. Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for about 3-5 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
