Method
 

  1. Roast the Veggies: Cut your sweet potatoes, carrots, and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast them in the oven until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
  2. Prep the Fresh Elements: Chop fresh bell peppers for a crisp, refreshing crunch, and grab a can of rinsed chickpeas.
  3. Cook the Egg: Boil an egg to your liking (whether you prefer it soft-boiled with a jammy yolk or hard-boiled) and peel it.
  4. Build Your Bowl: Start with a base of your warm roasted vegetables and fresh peppers. Mound the protein-packed chickpeas right in the center, scatter fresh herbs (like cilantro or parsley) over top, and nestle your egg on the side.
  5. Add a Dressing: Drizzle with a simple olive oil-lemon dressing, a squeeze of fresh citrus, or your favorite tahini sauce. Here are:
