This is one of our favourite quick meals. Za’atar is a delicious Middle Eastern spice mix made of sumac, sesame seeds, thyme and cumin. You can mix up your own and keep it as a delcious seasoning, otherwise you can buy it in many delis and spice shops. The mixture of the roast veg, haloumi, fresh greens and tangy balsamic glaze is heaven!
