Ingredients
- – 2 cups (480 ml) broccoli florets
- – 2 cups (480 ml) Brussels sprouts, halved
- – 1 medium-large sweet potato, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
- – 15 ounces (425 g) chickpeas, canned, drained and rinsed
- – Drizzle of olive oil or lemon juice
- – Dash of garlic powder
- – Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- – 1/4 cup (60 ml) beef mustard
- – 1/2 cup (120 ml) tahini
- – 1/3 cup (80 ml) water
- – 1/4 cup (60 ml) apple cider vinegar
- – 2 tablespoons date syrup or maple syrup (or to taste)
- – 2 tablespoons (30 ml) lemon juice
- – Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- ▢ Start by setting your oven to 400°F to warm up.
- ▢ Prepare a spacious baking tray by covering it with parchment or opting for a non-stick option. Put it aside for now.
- ▢ Flavor the vegetables: In a medium bowl, combine the broccoli, halved Brussels sprouts, sweet potato chunks, and chickpeas. Lightly coat them with olive oil or lemon juice to give them a shiny appearance. Sprinkle on garlic powder, salt, and fresh black pepper. Use your hands to evenly distribute the oil and spices over the veggies.
- ▢ Bake: Place the seasoned vegetables onto the baking tray. Let them bake for 15 minutes, then give them a quick toss. Continue baking for another 5 minutes or until the sweet potato is just soft enough. Switch the oven to broil mode and cook for an additional 2 minutes, aiming for a slight charring on the Brussels sprouts. Move the roasted vegetables into a large bowl once done.
- ▢ Prepare the dressing: In a medium bowl, mix together the beef mustard, tahini, water, apple cider vinegar, date syrup, and lemon juice until well-blended. Taste and tweak the mustard, syrup, and water if needed. Add some salt and freshly ground black pepper to enhance the flavor.
- ▢ To serve: Pour your desired amount of dressing over the roasted vegetables and mix to ensure they’re well-coated.
Notes
- Adjust the tahini or water amount for a creamier dressing texture.
- Enhance the dressing with parsley or dill for added flavor.
- Experiment with vinegar or balsamic vinegar for a different dressing taste.
