Chickpea and Cauliflower Sweet Potato



Ingredients:

  • 2 sweet potatoes, halved

  • olive oil

  • 1 can chickpeas, drained, rinsed, and patted dry

  • 1 small head of cauliflower, cut into very small florets

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • black pepper

  • pinch of cayenne

  • lemon, halved

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place sweet potatoes on baking sheet. Brush olive oil on sweet potatoes and season with salt and pepper.

  3. Arrange sweet potatoes cut-side down and roast in the oven until tender, about 30-40 minutes.

  4. On a sheet pan, combine chickpeas, cauliflower, 1-1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pinch of cayenne, and pepper. Toss well. Place half of a lemon on the sheet pan.

  5. Roast chickpeas in the oven for 20 minutes. Squeeze roasted lemon over the chickpeas and toss well.

  7. Serve with lemon tahini and herb salad.
