Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the courgette and capsicum into 2cm chunks. Slice the red onion into 2cm wedges. Divide the peeled & chopped pumpkin, courgette, capsicum and onion between two oven trays lined with baking paper. Add the garlic & herb seasoning, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. TIP: Cut the veggies to size so they cook in time.
While the veggies are roasting, roughly chop the walnuts. Cut the Greek salad cheese into thirds so you get 3 pieces per person.
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the walnuts and toast, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
When the veggies have 5 minutes cook time remaining, return the frying pan to a medium heat. Add the sesame seeds and toast, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Add the honey and dried oregano, stir to combine, then add the cheese. Cook, turning half-way through, until just softened and coated in the honey mixture, 1-2 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the red wine vinegar and a drizzle of olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Add the roasted veggies and baby spinach leaves and toss to combine.
Divide the roasted veggies between plates. Top with the Greek herb and honey-coated cheese. Sprinkle over the toasted walnuts.
