Directions
Sweet Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 400° F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Rinse and scrub potatoes, and rub with one tablespoon of olive oil and salt.
- Place on the baking tray and bake until tender, about one hour.
- While the sweet potatoes are cooking, toss chickpeas with the remaining olive oil and spices and place them on the baking sheet.
- Roast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
Hummus
- Prepare your sauce by adding the hummus, lemon juice and zest, spices, chili flakes, garlic, and dill to a mixing bowl and whisk to combine, adding a touch of water or to thin so it’s pourable.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Tomato Feta Salsa
- Prepare the parsley-tomato topping by tossing tomato, parsley, and green onions with lemon juice, olive oil, and feta and set aside to marinate.
Serve
- For serving, cut open each sweet potato and squeeze the sides slightly. Then top each sweet potato with the garlic herb sauce, and garnish with the parsley-tomato salad and chickpeas. Enjoy!
