Ingredients
  

  • 1 large sweet potato peeled and cubed (1-inch)
  • 2 medium zucchini sliced into half moons
  • 1 can 15oz chickpeas, drained, rinsed, and patted dry
  • 1 large red bell pepper chopped
  • ½ medium red onion sliced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 3 tbsp tahini
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove minced
  • 3 –4 tbsp warm water
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa or rice
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro
  • Optional: crumbled feta sliced avocado

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the sweet potato, zucchini, chickpeas, bell pepper, and red onion to the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat and spread into a single layer — don't crowd!
  • Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and caramelized at the edges and the chickpeas are crispy.
  • While the vegetables roast, make the tahini drizzle. Whisk together tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, and salt. Add warm water one tablespoon at a time until it reaches a drizzleable consistency.
  • Divide the cooked quinoa or rice between bowls. Top with the roasted vegetables and chickpeas.
  • Drizzle generously with the lemon tahini sauce, top with fresh herbs and any optional toppings, and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Store vegetables, grain, and sauce separately in airtight containers for up to 4 days. Reheat: Warm vegetables in a 375°F oven for 8–10 minutes or microwave until heated through. Vegan: Skip the feta — everything else is already vegan. Grain swap: Try farro, brown rice, couscous, or cauliflower rice as the base. Don't crowd the pan: Use two sheet pans if needed for best caramelization.
