This roasted vegetable medley makes great meal prep and stores beautifully well in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 7 days. Yes, you read that well, it will keep for a whole week in the right fridge temperature.
To reheat: place in heatproof bowl or line the air fryer basket with perforated parchment paper and cook for 3 minutes at 180C/365F.
To repurpose: You can eat leftover roasted vegetable warm or cold. I love it as a breakfast of crusty bread like antipasti or in a wrap with chicken.
