Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, combine 2 medium peeled and cut carrots, 2 medium peeled and cut sweet potatoes, and 1 can (15 oz) rinsed and drained chickpeas. Add 2 tbsp olive oil, 3 tbsp miso paste, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp honey, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes. Toss until evenly coated, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Step 2: Spread mixture in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 25 minutes, stirring gently with a spatula to redistribute. Continue roasting for 10-15 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and edges are golden brown.
  3. Step 3: Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
