Vegetables and Chickpeas
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups Brussels sprouts, halved
- 2 cups sweet potato, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 onion, sliced
- 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- Olive oil for drizzling
- Dash of garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Dressing
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup water (adjust as needed)
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the vegetables and chickpeas.
- Prepare and Season Vegetables: Arrange the broccoli florets, halved Brussels sprouts, sliced onion, and sweet potato pieces on a large baking sheet. Drizzle generously with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to taste. Toss to coat evenly.
- Roast Vegetables: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, turning the vegetables halfway through cooking. Roast until the vegetables are tender and caramelized with a slight golden edge.
- Prepare Chickpeas: On a separate baking sheet, spread the rinsed and drained chickpeas. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder. Roast in the oven for about 15 minutes or until the chickpeas are crispy and golden.
- Make the Dressing: While the veggies and chickpeas roast, whisk together tahini, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and water in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency by adding more water if needed.
- Assemble Bowls: Divide the roasted vegetables and crispy chickpeas evenly into serving bowls. Drizzle the prepared tahini-mustard dressing over the top just before serving.
Notes
- Perfect for meal prep as the components store well in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Feel free to customize the vegetables based on the season or preference, such as using cauliflower, carrots, or bell peppers.
- Store the tahini dressing separately to keep the veggies crisp and drizzle when ready to eat.
- For added protein, consider topping with pumpkin seeds or sliced avocado.
