Fall Roasted Vegetable Medley

I love roasted vegetables and can make a meal out of them. Especially when there’s crispy roasted and seasoned chickpeas to go along with them.

This isn’t a rocket science recipe that would necessarily make Julia Child proud. It takes simple ingredients, and with very simple preparation, demonstrates that seasonal veggies can taste like a million bucks. At least to me they do, but I have never been a ‘have to have meat and potatoes’ type of person.

These harvest vegetables are fast, easy, naturally vegan, gluten-free, and healthy. If you’re trying to go for a meatless main or aiming for some healthier lunch alternatives, this is a no-brainer.

It’s filling from all the fiber in the veggies as well as from the plant-based protein in the chickpeas.

What’s in Fall Roasted Vegetables? 

This recipe features the same base of ingredients I use in this Roasted Sweet Potato and Chickpea Buddha Bowl. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Sweet potato
  • Brussels sprouts
  • Chickpeas – make sure to pat your chickpeas dry with a paper towel when you add them to the baking sheet. That will allow them to crisp up much more in the oven
  • Red onion
  • Olive oil
  • Spices (cumin, coriander, turmeric, salt, pepper) 
  • Garlic

How to Make Fall Roasted Vegetables 

Who said vegetables have to be bland or boring? With simple steps, you can create a bold, flavorful, nutritious meal you’ll look forward to eating! Here’s an overview of the process:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425F, and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  2. Arrange the veggies in a single layer, making sure the Brussels sprouts are placed cut-side down. Then, drizzle the mixture with oil, and evenly sprinkle the seasonings on top.
  3. Roast until the potatoes are fork-tender and the sprouts darken to your liking. Toss the veggies halfway through baking to ensure they all cook evenly.
  4. Prepare a dressing like Lemon Tahini Dressing or Curry Yogurt Sauce while the veggies roast.
  5. Pour the dressing on top, toss to combine, and enjoy your harvest vegetables while warm!

Recipe FAQs

How long should I roast my veggies?

Because you’re roasting heartier root vegetables like sweet potatoes in this recipe, you’ll need to roast them for about 25 to 30 minutes. 

Can I add other vegetables?

Yes, you can definitely mix and match the veggies based on what you have on hand and enjoy. If you have other veggies that roast well — like summer squash, winter squash (butternut squash, acorn squash, etc.), carrots, or cauliflower. They would be nice additions!

Can you roast frozen vegetables?

Technically, yes. However, I don’t recommend using any frozen vegetables for this particular recipe (Brussels sprouts are best fresh, in my opinion). 

How can I add more flavor to my veggies?

Feel free to include additional herbs or spices like garlic powder, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, or even a drizzle of balsamic vinegar!

How long do leftovers last?

These roasted vegetables and chickpeas are best served fresh. However, if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet

Ingredients  

  • 1 large/extra-large sweet potato, peeled and diced into 1 1/2-inch chunks
  • 15 Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • one 15-ounce can low-sodium chickpeas, drained, rinsed, and patted dry
  • 1 small red onion, peeled and sliced into small chunks
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 ½ teaspoons coriander
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
  • ¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
  • minced garlic, optional and to taste

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 425F convection bake (if you don’t have a convection oven, 425F regular is fine, noting your roasting time could be a bit longer) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
  • Add the sweet potato, Brussels sprouts cut side down, chickpeas, and red onion. Evenly drizzle with olive oil, evenly sprinkle with cumin, coriander, turmeric, salt, pepper, and optional garlic.
  • Roast for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are tender and sprouts are as darkened as desired. Toss/flip once midway through roasted to ensure even cooking.
  • If desired, while the veggies roast, make either of these dressings: Lemon Tahini Dressing or Curry Yogurt Sauce.

Notes

Note – I kept the vegetables more distinctly separated on my baking sheet for photography and cosmetic purposes, but it’s fine to mix everything up when you’re tossing with the oil and seasonings.
Storage: Vegetables and chickpeas are best fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days.

  1. I was just thinking last night when I was making roasted brussels sprouts how I could make a meal out of them…LOVE this idea! :)

  2. I remember how good your budha bowl recipe was so I know I’ll love this! I am trying to decide which dressing to go with–both of those are good too!

    1. This definitely reminded me of the Buddha Bowl and you can’t go wrong with most any dressing for it! Let me know what you go with!
