Roast Za’atar Vegetables

This has been a favourite for years and makes a wonderful side dish to any meal, or as an addition to a table of salads.  The herby za’atar complements the vegetables and nutty chickpeas perfectly, and the paprika adds a little depth of flavour.  To have as a standalone vegetarian meal, crumble a packet of feta on top for the last 10 minutes of cooking.
