Roasted Purple Sweet Potato

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs of purple sweet potatoes (3-4 medium potatoes)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • sesame seeds and sliced spring onion for garnish
  • pinch of sea salt

Miso Tahini Dressing:

  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp tahini (almond butter also works)
  • 3 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup

Crispy Chickpeas:

  • 15 oz can chickpeas, drained and dried
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp paprika

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 F.
  2. Prick the purple sweet potatoes with a fork. Place the sweet potatoes on a sheet of aluminum foil, drizzle with avocado oil, and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Wrap the sweet potatoes up and roast in the oven for 40-50 minutes, or until it gets soft and can be easily pierced with a knife.
  3. Drain a can of chickpeas and pat them dry with a towel. Toss with sea salt, paprika, and avocado oil. Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and roast in the oven for 20-30 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  4. In the meantime, prepare the dressing by mixing all the ingredients in a small bowl.
  5. Cut the roasted sweet potato lengthwise to expose the flesh. Drizzle with the miso tahini dressing, top with roasted chickpeas, sesame seeds, and green onions. Enjoy!
