Make this! It is so, so good! The sweetness of the roasted vegetable, with the umami of the cheese, with the savory of the cumin, and a heavy hand on the salt? It was perfect. Could not stop eating. I served it on top of leftover farro, roasted beets, and made a quick sauce of yogurt, mint, garlic, olive oil, and salt. No need for fussy brushing, just toss everything in a bowl together before spreading out on the sheet.
