Roasted Sesame Mushroom Bean Bowls

A nourishing and flavor-packed bowl featuring roasted mushrooms, crispy chickpeas, cauliflower, and a creamy green herb drizzle served over quinoa or rice.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups sliced mushrooms (shiitake or cremini)
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and patted dry
  • 2 cups cauliflower florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 handfuls mixed greens or arugula
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa or rice
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (mint, parsley)
  • Green Herb Drizzle (blend of tahini, lemon juice, water, salt, and fresh herbs)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, toss mushrooms, cauliflower, and chickpeas with olive oil, sesame oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread the mixture on the baking sheets in a single layer to avoid overcrowding.
  4. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  5. While roasting, prepare quinoa or rice and blend the green herb drizzle ingredients until smooth.
  6. Toss greens lightly with olive oil and lemon juice.
  7. Assemble bowls with grains, roasted vegetables, greens, herbs, and a generous drizzle of the sauce.
  8. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Dry chickpeas well to ensure they roast up crispy.
  • Fresh herbs make the drizzle vibrant and aromatic.
  • Roast veggies in batches if needed to avoid steaming.
  • Let bowls rest a few minutes before serving for flavors to meld.
