Have you ever tried balsamic reduction? If not, you are in for a treat. You can easily make it yourself (which I did– see recipe below) by simmering balsamic vinegar until it’s reduced by half. The result is a thick, sweet, syrupy sauce that tastes amazing on these veggies, drizzled over pizza, on a Caprese salad, or even on strawberries. Some people make it with added sugar, which you can do if you want, but I don’t think it’s necessary (plus it’s healthier without). You can also buy balsamic reduction already made- Trader Joe’s has a great one without any added sugar. You can find other brands at your local grocery store where the balsamic vinegar is.
For this recipe, I used zucchini, cauliflower, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. You can use other veggies if you want- sweet potatoes, squash, broccoli, asparagus… really anything would be great! It’s an awesome way to use up any random produce you have hanging out in your fridge before it goes bad.
