Instructions
Bowl Contents
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Toss sweet potatoes with ½ of the olive oil.
Place sweet potatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
After 15 minutes, toss broccoli with remaining olive oil and add to baking sheet.
Bake broccoli with sweet potatoes for another 15 minutes OR until a fork can easily pass through the largest piece of sweet potato.
Remove from oven, let cool for 10 minutes.
Divide all ingredients into two bowls.
Garlic Tahini Sauce
Add tahini, pressed garlic, maple syrup, and lemon juice to a bowl and whisk until combined.
Add hot water, starting with 2 tbsp, see note below.
Once everything has been combined, add salt and pepper to taste.
Squeeze the lemon wedges on top (if using).
Notes
• This recipe makes 2 bowls, but if you want more, the recipe doubles nicely. If you want only 1 bowl, cut back on the ingredients by half. • Be sure that you use hot water when thinning out the tahini sauce (it can seize up and become very thick). Start with 2 tablespoon and continue to add until you've reached the consistency you like (I usually stop at 3). • The maple syrup may seem strange to add to the garlic tahini sauce, but tahini can be a bit bitter on its own. The sweetness from the maple syrup cuts some of that bitterness out.
