For this warm salad you'll roast yellow pepper, aubergine and courgette until golden, then mix through salad leaves and crispy golden croutons. Seasonal pink beef tomato makes for a deliciously juicy centrepiece, and you'll whizz up a homemade cheddar pesto to dollop all over. You'll be tickled pink with this one!
