Sweet potato chickpea bowl
This delicious sweet potato bowl with chickpeas and lots of lettuce is perfect for a quick lunch (when prepped in advance) but can easily serve as a dinner too. Add chicken or bacon if you want but it is pretty filling on it's own.
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and cut into cubes
- 250 grams chickpeas drained and rinsed
- ¾ cup mixed greens or swap in baby spinach!
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper adjust to taste
- Salt & black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
For the Green Vegan Dressing:
- 3 tablespoons veganaise or mayo if not vegan
- 20 grams fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Juice of ½ lemon
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Spread the sweet potato cubes and chickpeas on a baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle on cayenne, salt, and pepper, and toss to coat.
- Roast for about 25 minutes, until everything’s golden and slightly crispy.
- Meanwhile, blend the dressing ingredients together until smooth and creamy. You should get a light green, zesty sauce.
- To serve, split the roasted veggies between two bowls, top with mixed greens, and drizzle generously with your green dressing.
