Ingredients
- 1 lb brussel sprouts
- 1 large or 2 small sweet potatoes
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Pepitas or pumpkin seeds (optional, for topping)
Chickpeas
- 1 15 oz. can chickpeas
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp turmeric
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
Maple Tahini
- ¼ cup tahini
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F. Peel and cube sweet potatoes, and trim brussel sprouts by cutting off the brown end. Place brussel sprouts and sweet potato cubes on a parchment lined baking sheet, leaving room to add chickpeas later. Toss the brussel sprouts in the balsamic vinegar. Drizzle olive oil over all the veggies and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Bake sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts for 35-40 minutes.
- Rinse and drain chickpeas. Toss with olive oil and coat in spices (salt, pepper, turmeric, and nutmeg). Put them on the baking sheet with the rest of the vegetables 20 minutes into baking.
- While veggies are roasting, prepare quinoa. Rinse and drain quinoa. Bring quinoa and vegetable broth to a boil in a pot. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lower heat, cover pot, and simmer until quinoa is fully cooked and liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
- Prepare maple tahini sauce by whisking together all the ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- Assemble your bowls! Place roasted veggies over a bed of quinoa in a bowl. Drizzle with maple tahini and top with pumpkin seeds if desired. Enjoy!
