Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
- 2 medium carrots, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 red onion, quartered
- 2 cups Brussels sprouts, halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 garlic clove, minced

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato, carrots, bell pepper, red onion, and Brussels sprouts with olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Spread the vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 35-40 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring once halfway through.

Helpful Tips
- For easier cleanup, line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Feel free to substitute any of the vegetables with your seasonal favorites, such as butternut squash or parsnips.
- If tahini is too thick, warm it slightly before mixing with the other dressing ingredients.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
