I love roasting fruit and not only for desserts. Roasted fruit is fantastic in salads.
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl whisk together orange zest, flax seed oil, balsamic vinegar and agave nectar. Add your halved strawberries and stir. Place strawberries in your baking pan lined with parchment paper.
Roast for 25 minutes. Allow strawberries to cool a bit before placing on your greens.
Place your mixed greens on your plate or platter, adorn with strawberries, sprinkle with a little feta cheese and sunflower seeds and sparingly drizzle a little dressing over top.
TIP: Toasted walnuts can be use to garnish and walnut oil can be substituted for the flax seed oil.
