Ingredients
  

1 medium zucchini, diced

1 medium red bell pepper, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 medium red onion, chopped

1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved

3 tablespoons olive oil

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (oregano, thyme, basil)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 cup cooked quinoa or brown rice

Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Veggies: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced zucchini, red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and Brussels sprouts.

      Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), garlic powder, dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper until well blended.

        Toss the Veggies: Pour the balsamic dressing over the vegetables and toss to ensure they are evenly coated.

          Roast the Veggies: Spread the coated veggies out in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through cooking.

            Prepare the Chickpeas: While the vegetables are roasting, spread the chickpeas on a separate baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and roast for the last 15-20 minutes of the vegetable roasting time for added crunch.

              Assemble the Bowls: Once the veggies and chickpeas are done roasting, add a base of quinoa or brown rice to each bowl. Top with roasted veggies and chickpeas.

                Garnish and Serve: Finish with fresh basil or parsley for a pop of color and flavor. Drizzle any remaining balsamic dressing over the top if desired.
