INGREDIENTS

– avocado oil – za’atar seasoning – sweet potato – zucchini squash

1

Start by parboiling the sweet potato. Just 5 to 8 minutes in boiling water gets it fork-tender without making it mushy. Let it cool, then slice it into ¼-inch rounds.

2

Preheat your grill to medium-high. While it heats up, brush all your veggies – sweet potato, zucchini, and yellow squash – with olive oil and season both sides generously with za’atar.

3

Grill the sweet potatoes first – they’ll need 3 to 5 minutes per side. Flip when char marks appear, and they feel tender. Transfer to a serving plate once cooked.

4

Then grill your squash slices – these cook faster, about 1 to 3 minutes per side. Once softened and charred, add them to the plate.

5

To finish, drizzle everything with pesto and sprinkle feta over the top. Garnish with a little extra sea salt, black pepper, and a bright splash of lemon juice.
