Making light meals doesn’t mean you have to lose flavour. Mixing up the veggies always make the meal unique. The beans and artichoke are baked so that they get a little crunchy and the char gives a really deep flavour when you put them in the lemon pan at the end. Served with a side salad this is a full meal.
