- 2 Sweet Potatoes Halved
- 1 head Broccoli Chopped
- 2 handfuls Kale Large stems removed
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper
- Tahini For serving
Chickpeas

- ½ teaspoon Oregano
- ¼ teaspoon Tumeric
Equipment

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and arrange sweet potatoes and onions on a baking sheet. Drizzle both with a bit of oil, making sure the flesh of the sweet potatoes are well coated and placed skin side down on the sheet.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven flip sweet potatoes and add broccoli. Drizzle broccoli with a bit of oil and season with a pinch each salt and pepper.
- Bake for another 8-10 minutes, then remove from oven and add kale. Drizzle kale with a touch more oil and season with a pinch each salt and pepper. Bake for another 4-5 minutes then set aside.
- While vegetables are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add chickpeas to a mixing bowl and toss with seasonings.
- Once hot, add 1 Tbsp oil and chickpeas and sauté, stirring frequently. If they’re browning too quickly, turn down heat. If there isn’t much browning going on, increase heat. Sauté for about 10 minutes.
- Once the chickpeas are browned and fragrant, remove from heat and set aside.
- To serve: slice sweet potatoes into bite size pieces. Divide vegetables between 3 serving bowls and top with chickpeas + 1 tablespoon of tahini sauce.
- Best when fresh, though leftovers will keep for a few days in the fridge.
