Summary

Making meal prep simple and mainstream while ensuring it’s good for you and your family is one way to optimize your lifestyle. Plant-based eating is more enjoyable when you’re working in synergy with the plants — that means you understand how to prepare them so they taste delicious and deliver all they have to offer. This one-sheet meal or side makes recipe creation simple by placing all plants on the baking sheet that cook at the same time. Enjoy them fresh out of the oven for a warm and special roasted veggie treat.

Ingredients

 1 medium delicata squash (sliced in half)
 1 lb Brussels sprouts, nobby ends removed, sliced in half (about 2–3 cups, halved)
 2 cups broccoli (cut into 1–2” florets)
 2 cups organic kale (stems removed, leaves sliced thin)
 1 tsp olive oil (optional)
 1 cup organic apples (cut into 1” cubes)
 2 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed, +2 Tbsp as desired)
 1 batch Pickled Red Onion (link in Chef’s Notes)
 1 batch Sweet and Savory Pecans (link in Chef’s Notes)

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2

Scrape out the seeds of the delicata squash with a tablespoon. Discard or compost the seeds.

3

On one baking sheet, place the delicata squash, cut side down. Evenly space out the Brussels sprouts and broccoli on the second baking sheet (if you’re using one large baking sheet and can fit all the veggies while spreading them out evenly then that’s fine too!).

4

Roast the vegetables for 20–25 minutes.

5

Meanwhile prepare the kale: Add the kale to a large bowl and drizzle with a teaspoon of olive oil, if using. With clean hands massage the kale and sprinkle with salt, if desired.

6

Divide the kale between two bowls, along with the apples.

7

Once the roasted veggies are tender, remove them from the oven. Let the squash cool before removing the skin with a paring knife. Cut into 1” cubes.

8

Divide the squash, Brussels and broccoli between the two bowls.

9

Squeeze lemon juice over each bowl.

10

Top each bowl with a few forkfuls of pickled onions and 2–4 tablespoons of Sweet and Savory Pecans.

11

Toss and enjoy.

Chef's Notes

Substitutions
Substitute sweet potato, pumpkin or butternut squash in place of delicata squash.

Roast carrots or beets in place of broccoli and Brussels sprouts.

Instead of pickled red onion use another pickled vegetable of choice or use ½ cup chopped raw red onion divided between the two bowls.

Nut-free
Instead of pecans, top the veggies with sunflower or pumpkin seeds.
