Perfect for meal prep or weeknight dinners, these colorful bowls are wholesome, satisfying, and bursting with flavor.

Ingredients

  • For the bowls:
  • 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 small red onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups cooked grain (quinoa, farro, brown rice, or couscous)
  • Baby spinach or arugula (optional, for serving)
  • For the maple Dijon tahini dressing:
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2–4 tbsp warm water (to thin)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, toss chickpeas, sweet potatoes, broccoli, and red onion with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread everything in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until veggies are caramelized and chickpeas are crispy.
  4. While veggies roast, whisk together tahini, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic, and water until smooth and pourable. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Assemble bowls by layering grains, roasted veggies, and chickpeas. Drizzle with dressing.
  6. Serve as is or over a bed of greens.

Notes

  • Use seasonal veggies like carrots, parsnips, Brussels sprouts, or zucchini.
  • Add toasted seeds, nuts, or avocado for extra richness.
  • Swap grains for cauliflower rice or couscous.
  • Add sriracha or cayenne to the dressing for a spicy kick.
  • Dressing keeps for up to a week; shake or stir before using.
