Sheet Pan Veggie Dinner with Broccoli, Sweet Potato, Tofu, Chickpeas, Sunflower seeds dressed with Miso Maple Dressing. Vegan Glutenfree Nutfree Recipe. Can be soyfree with chickpea miso. 20 gm of Protein
Since Spring I have been favoring Roasted Veggie Meals that are simple to put together and allow easy experimentation with spices, herbs, flavors. I mean look at that gorgeous bowl with Korean Gochugaru, we had the veggies for dinner in wraps just last night.
It also helps that most are sheet pan dinners or meals. Toss in spices or herbs, spread on pan, bake and done. Add dressing of choice and serve as is or over greens. Today’s veggies have chipotle pepper powder and flakes to add flavor and are served with a miso maple dressing. The sweet and sour dressing mellows the heat of the chipotle. You can also serve the veggies with vegan sour cream or lime crema. Veggies + sunflower seeds + dressing, refreshing, filling and Delicious. Broccoli, Tofu and chickpeas amp up the protein to about 20 g per serve!
I should probably name this month Eat the veggies! What are your favorite veggie bowls/meals.
Do you like veggie bowl meals or would you like other applications of veggies this season. Either Bowls or throw everything in the Instant pot  kind of meals have been popular in the house.

Made it!!! It was so delicious 😋 next time I may add some more veggies like muhrooms. The spice mix and dressing are perfect though not changing that!!
This is one of my favorites yet! I doubled the recipe and added mushroom, onion, and snap peas to the veggies instead of doubling broccoli and red pepper. The tofu is great in here. I doubled the dressing and blended it in the Ninja , it came out perfect ! Thank you for sharing this beatiful creation.
Awesome! Yes its such a hearty meal and flexible with whatever spice blends you want to use.
So day 2 and the first vegan dish I’ve served to my family and they absolutely loved it! I was so worried mainly because of the transition for them but the flavors work so well. I can totally get used to this! Thank you!
Thats awesome! As you transition, there will be some meals that might not work out for everyone. And thats ok. Everyone has different flavor and texture preferences. Keep note of what is loved to have a set of fall back vegan meals.
I dont like certain veggies like okra, so if someone served me a really really good dish but it had okra in it, i might not be able to finish the meal 🙂 not a problem with the food, just my preference. 🙂
New to your site and today is day 1 of cold turkey going vegan. What does (pressed for 10 mins then cubed) mean for tofu?
Awesome! you can use a tofu press(its a small kitchen gadget), or cover the tofu in paper towel then a kitchen towel and place heavy books/objects (few lbs) on it to remove the excess water. You also can find already pressed tofu that is vacuum packed rather than in water as that means no pressing time. Also if you have any questions, i am much faster to respond on my facebook page messaging (https://facebook.com/veganricha ). If you havent already, also join some vegan facebook groups (local or general). Support during the initial transition is very helpful and makes it smoother and easier. Good luck!
I made this and took to work for lunch, that dressing is to die for. Definitely making again! Thank you for your wonderful recipes.
awesome!
So Good!! My husband and nine year old boy gave this meal a huge thumbs up when I prepared it for dinner last night. I made a double batch as I had all ingredients except sunflower seeds so I used pumpkin seeds. They had leftovers cold over lettuce today and said it was amazing. Thank you for your recipes. 😊
yay! Awesome!
Turned out great! Thanks for another awesome recipe. 🙂
This looks great and I may make it tomorrow. I’ve enjoyed all of your recipes that I’ve tried so far. I confess I check to see what you have made almost every day and browse your past recipes any time I have time.
Thanks!!
I don’t see where it says to add the chickpeas…. with the veggies or with the sunflower seeds?
oops yes with the veggies
This looks yummy!! My husband is allergic to chickpeas (and lentils for that matter). What do you think would be a good sub for the chickpeas? Would canned cannelini beans or navy beans work?
yes those beans should work. Some beans will tend to dry out more than others, but there is the dressing to compensate. Also using a stoneware baking dish helps will a better roasted bean result
