A delicious sheet pan of vegetables and chickpeas roasted to perfection! This recipe is easy, satisfying, customizable, and so delicious. (Vegan, gluten-free, oil-free option.)
This dish is a big, cozy pan of your favorite vegetables roasted to tender perfection.
Then we take it to the next level by inviting chickpeas to the party.
It's such an easy (one pan!) comfort food meal.
Plus it's quick and simple to assemble, then we let the oven do the work.
Ingredients
For this recipe you will toss together on a sheet pan or baking sheet, then bake in the oven:
- Chickpeas (garbanzo beans): These add hearty texture and plant-based protein and fiber to the dish.
- Carrots
- Potatoes: I like the rich, buttery taste of Yukon gold potatoes best with this recipe, but feel free to use your own favorite. Russet potatoes, red potatoes, waxy potatoes, fingerling, or new potatoes will work.
- Cauliflower: This develops a golden, caramelized flavor when roasted and I really enjoy it in this dish.
- Fresh broccoli florets
- Red onion: Or substitute sweet onion or yellow onion if preferred.
- Mushrooms: Most of the time I use cremini mushrooms, but white button mushrooms or even sliced Portobello mushrooms would work too. However simply omit these if you do not care for mushrooms.
- Fresh garlic cloves: This adds great flavor, but you can also substitute with dried garlic powder if desired.
- Dried basil: Or other herb of choice. This is a fun recipe to play around with based on your own favorite flavors.
- Olive oil: Use a good quality extra-virgin olive oil or your own favorite vegetable oil. (See below for an oil-free option.)
- Salt: I use fine grain salt for this recipe. Use as much or as little as you would like. You can also include black pepper if desired.
Customizing
This recipe is very flexible! Use your own favorites or whatever is in season. A few ideas include:
Vegetables: Change it up with sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, zucchini, yellow summer squash, tomatoes, beets, bell peppers, butternut squash, or other winter squash.
Herbs + spices: Instead of dried basil, change up the flavor with ground cumin, smoked paprika, Italian seasonings, rosemary, thyme, dried oregano, curry powder, or coriander. Or you can toss it with fresh herbs after roasting like parsley, cilantro, basil, dill, or fresh chives.
Make it oil-free! Simply omit the olive oil and line your pan with parchment paper (or Silpat) for easy non-stick baking.
Serving
The recipe makes about 8 side dish servings. (But I think it's the star of the show, so I usually enjoy it as a main dish.)
Grain bowls: You can also turn this recipe into a grain bowl. Spoon cooked quinoa, rice, cauliflower rice, or your own favorite grain in a bowl. Then top with the roast veggies mixture and dairy-free crumbled feta cheese if desired. Then drizzle it with a creamy sauce like this Miso Tahini Dressing!
Note: This recipe makes a large batch, so decrease or cut in half if desired.

Hi Kaitlin. Can I use frozen broccoli and cauliflower?
Kaitlin McGinn says
Hi Yolanda! I haven't tried frozen veggies with this recipe, but I think that could work! (The texture might be a little softer.)
Annemarie Doolin says
Hi, due to bad season here in Denmark, cauliflower is scarce so I substituted it for some a whole red pepper cut in chunks and added about 6 vine tomatoes (between cherry and normal size) cut in halves. It was delicious!... when your non-veggie husband says "Is there any seconds?" you know you've found a keeper! Thanks I'll be doing this again.

That's so great! Thanks for your feedback!
James says
Hi there, I'm a big fan of tomato and am wondering whether adding some chunks of tomato to this dish would be a good idea? I can't wait to try it, it looks delicious. Thanks.
Kaitlin | The Garden Grazer says
Hi James! That sounds like a great idea. Either adding them fresh before serving, or roasting them with everything else!
James says
Hi Kaitlin! I tried out the recipe and it came out really well. Thanks for sharing it. Next time I make it, I'll try with the tomato and let you know how it goes.
