Cookware

baking sheet pan · can opener · chef's knife · citrus juicer (optional) · colander · cutting board · grater (optional) · julienne peeler (optional) · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · oven mitts · spatula · stirring spoon · tongs · vegetable peeler · whisk or fork

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  2. Wash and dry the produce; drain and rinse the chickpeas and set them aside to drain further.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine oil, sesame seeds, brown sugar, chili powder, coriander, and cumin; mix until evenly coated.
  4. Slice the sweet potatoes into ½-inch rounds and add them to the bowl with the chickpeas; toss to coat.
  5. Spread the mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast, flipping halfway, until the potatoes are tender and the chickpeas are crisp, about 20 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, prepare the dressing by mincing the dill, juicing the lemon, and whisking together feta, yogurt, mayonnaise, water, salt, and pepper until smooth; adjust with water if needed for drizzling consistency.
  7. Peel and julienne (or coarsely grate) the carrots and add them to the dressing; roughly chop the spinach and toss it into the salad mixture.
  8. To serve, divide the roasted chickpeas and sweet potatoes among plates and spoon over or alongside the dill-lemon feta salad.

Two tips

  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
  • For a brighter finish, add a squeeze of lemon over the plated bowls just before serving.
