How to Make this Vegan Sheet Pan Supper
This vegan sheet pan supper will fill you up with it’s combination of brussels sprout, sweet potato, portobello mushroom, red onion, and chickpeas. The veggies are tossed with a smokey, sweet marinade that gives them amazing taste! They are then topped with some creamy avocado and lime, seriously, this dinner has amazing taste.
First, you need to chop your brussels sprouts, portobello and red onion. Next, marinate your vegetables. I marinated my brussels sprouts, mushroom and red onion in the marinade for 30 minutes. This gave me time to go ahead and chop my sweet potato, rinse my can of chickpeas and prep my pan for the oven. The marinade is super easy with liquid smoke, maple syrup, amino acids and minced garlic. Liquid smoke is found in the same aisle along with your BBQ sauces at the grocery store. It is a fantastic way to give your dishes a ‘smokey’ taste.
After your veggies are marinated you can assemble your sheet pan! If you want to make your vegetable sheet pan ‘pretty’ arrange your veggies by group or just toss them all on the pan (what I do usually). Make sure you add your chickpeas and sweet potato!
Now you are ready to roast your plant based vegetable dinner!
How to Serve Your Plant Based Sheet Pan Dinner
After roasting serve your vegetables in a bowl with creamy avocado and a squeeze of lime. You could make this a salad bowl by adding fresh greens and using the delicious apple cider vinegar dressing found in the show notes – that makes these veggies outstanding!
Alternately, you could serve this with some mashed cauliflower or add some cooked quinoa to increase the protein.
