Light, refreshing and vegetarian take on antipasti

Marinating the vegetables brings out a whole host of bright flavors. Serve the vegetables with some rustic bread for sopping up the flavorful marinade. If you like, you also can include a hunk of Parmesan cheese on your platter; a small piece goes a long way.

Other nice, and healthy, additions to an antipasti platter are anchovies and olives. Like the Parmesan, they add a pungent and salty element that contrasts nicely with the vegetables.
