Pete's Frootique of Bedford, N.S., in the greater Halifax area, is the brainchild of Pete Luckett, Canada's popular TV fruit-and-vegetable expert. As well as fresh produce, the large store includes a juice bar, a butcher, a specialty British food shop and European deli and lunch counters. Many meals-to-go can be ordered from the deli counter and some of the favourites are shepherd's pie, Greek spinach pie and this vegetable "lasagna," which includes no noodles but layers of tasty oven-roasted vegetables. You can, of course, add lasagna noodles if you wish or a layer of other roasted vegetables, such as red peppers.
