For convenience, you can’t go wrong with a sheet pan dinner! Roasted in a hot oven, the natural sugars in sweet potato, red potato, and red onion start to caramelize and take on a rich umami flavor. Broccoli adds texture and a pleasing green contrast. If you prefer your broccoli to be brighter green than it gets in the oven, steam it until crisp-tender and add to the finished dish. Chickpeas, coated in a simple maple-balsamic glaze, provide heft, not to mention a heavenly sweet and tangy flavor. Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts and serve this toothsome combo with a leafy green salad.
Tips
Pine nuts: Toast the pine nuts on the baking pan in the preheated oven 2 to 3 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately remove nuts from the pan, then use the same pan to roast the vegetables and beans.
Optional oil: This is a Forks Flex Recipe, which means it includes a small amount of optional oil. If you include the oil, you'll add approximately 30 calories, 3.5 g total fat, and 0.5 g saturated fat per serving.

(5 from 5 votes)Excellent; I'm healing from an intestinal issue because I ate junk for the longest time where I needed help just to pass food. Since I began eating plant based recipes, I no longer have issues with my gut and passing food normally without any help. THANK YOU SO MUCH for these delicious recipes
Really tasty combination & the whole family liked it, even the teens, haha. Putting this in our regular rotation. Thanks!
I didn't have pine nuts so I used sesame seeds instead.
What can i use in place of coconut aminos?
Hi Margaret, A common swap is soy sauce or tamari. If you're gluten-free, you'll nee to opt for a gluten-free tamari. One caveat: Coconut aminos are sweeter and less salty, so you might want to try half the amount and add a teaspoon of maple syrup, or leave that out, if you prefer. Good luck! Let us know how it goes.
This is a fabulous recipe. I just made it for the first time. I’m happy to say I have enough ingredients to make a second batch!
This is delicious! Love the combination of chunks of sweet potatoes and slices of yellow potatoes. Pouring the chickpeas and sauce over the veggies and topping it with pine nuts made it taste very special. Thank you!
This was great! The sauce gave wonderful flavor to enhance the veggies.
Where does the fat come from?
From the pine nuts sprinkled on at end.
Surprisingly good. I was concerned there were not enough spice and flavor enhancers in this. Changed broccoli to brussel sprouts for personal preference, and baked it 20 minutes longer than suggested. Very tasty.
