Ingredients

  • 3 cups cauliflower rice
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • 1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp water

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss Brussels sprouts with 1 tbsp olive oil, place on one section of a sheet pan, roast alone 10 minutes — they take longer than the softer vegetables.

  2. 2

    Toss zucchini, bell pepper, and onion with remaining olive oil and Italian seasoning, add to the other section of the pan.

  3. 3

    Roast everything together 15 more minutes, until all vegetables are tender and lightly caramelized — staggering the start times like this keeps the quick-cooking vegetables from turning mushy before the sprouts finish.

  4. 4

    Sauté cauliflower rice in a dry skillet 5 minutes until tender.

  5. 5

    Whisk tahini, lemon juice, and water until smooth and pourable. Serve roasted vegetables over cauliflower rice, drizzled with tahini dressing.
