Ingredients
  

Sheet Pan Veggies, Chickpeas & Gnocchi

  • 1 pkg fresh gnocchi, about 700g
  • 1 19 oz. of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 4 small beets, peeled and chopped
  • 1 large zucchini, sliced into half moons
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp basil
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • ¼-½ cup pesto, I used a vegan one
  • 1/4 cup tablespoons cashew sauce, store-bought or homemade

Homemade Cashew Garlic Sauce

  • 1 cup cashews
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 3 garlic gloves
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup water, adding a little at a time to control consistency

Other Toppings

  • balsamic glaze
  • feta

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper, a silicone liner or lightly grease it.
  • Add the gnocchi, chickpeas, diced beet, and sliced zucchini to the pan. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with seasonings. Toss everything and spread it out into a single layer on the sheet pan.
  • Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the gnocchi are golden and slightly crispy and the veggies are soft and caramelized.
  • While the gnocchi and veggies are baking in the oven, make the cashew garlic sauce. Add all of the ingredients to a blender and mix.
  • Once everything is roasted, remove the pan from the oven. Spoon the pesto over the gnocchi and vegetables while still warm so it melts in a little. Drizzle the cashew sauce and balsamic glaze over top, then finish with crumbled feta.
