Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled, cubed or some winter squash
  • 2 large Gold potatoes, cubed
  • 1 small eggplant, peeled - optional, cubed 2-3 cups
  • 1 sweet red bell pepper, cubed
  • 1 zucchini, cubed
  • 1 cup Brussels Sprouts, cut in half or more
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1 15 ounce garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed reserve 2 T aquafaba
  • 2 Tbls lemon juice
  • 2 Tbls aquafaba - broth from the canned beans, optional
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp salt substitute I use Local Spicery Sel-Acious
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tsp minced fresh garlic
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
Garnish after roasting
  • Your Favorite flavored Balsamic vinegar I like the California Balsamic, Curry, Italian or Garlic. The lighter colored vinegars make a prettier presentation for this dish. You can use a plain white balsamic or regular balsamic vinegar.

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees for convection oven, 425 degrees for a conventional oven.
  2. Using 2 rimmed baking sheets, line with parchment paper or use a silpat mat to prevent sticking.
  3. Prepare all the vegetables and put them in a large mixing bowl along with the chickpeas.
  4. Add the lemon juice and aquafaba if using - its optional.
    Add seasonings, feel free to adjust the vegetables and seasonings to suit your personal taste preferences.
  5. Divide vegetables evenly between the two prepared baking sheets.
    Roast for 40 minutes, stirring 2-3 times to prevent burning and for even roasting.

Notes

Recently I have been using the Curry Balsamic with cumin seeds and ground cumin. It's so flavorful. However I do love all the vinegar flavors. A simple plain balsamic vinegar is also delicious but it does change the color of the veggies. You can change the spices, try an Italian seasoning mix with a lemon balsamic or California Balsamic 7 herb Italian Balsamic. Herbs de Provence seasoning or Hestia from Local Spicery with a white balsamic. There are endless possibilities
Serving Suggestions:
Use as a main dish in a Nourish Bowl with greens, grains and mushrooms.
Enjoy as a side dish with lentil loaf or a veggie burger.
Add hot or cold to the top of a chopped salad.
Try different combinations of vegetables, seasonings and flavored vinegars.
