For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the vegetables instead of roasting them. Feel free to substitute other seasonal vegetables, such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or sugar snap peas. If you don't have Romano cheese, Parmesan cheese works well too. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving brightens up the flavors even more.
