Looking for an easy vegan dinner? This vegan sheet pan meal requires just about 20 minutes of work. Simply roast your vegetables and chickpeas and prepare the maple tahini dressing. Serve it all over leafy greens and your choice of toppings. Avocadoes, seeds and nutritional yeast pair especially well with this recipe.
This sheet pan meal is packed with vegetables, fiber and plant-based protein. It also includes some healthy fats from the avocadoes, olive oil and seeds. It’s nutritious, filling and delicious!
Plus, it’s packed with both fresh leafy greens and warm roasted vegetables. The warm and cold combination makes it perfect for every season.
How to Make a Vegan Sheet Pan Dinner
Start by roasting some vegetables and chickpeas. This recipe uses cauliflower, mini potatoes and chickpeas for protein.
Make a vegan dressing using tahini, lemon juice, garlic, maple syrup, olive oil, Dijon mustard and salt. Whisk it all together and add water to thin as needed.
Serve the roasted vegetables over leafy greens and add a drizzle of maple tahini dressing. Top your bowl with avocadoes, seeds and nutritional yeast if desired.
Notes on the Recipe:
- You can use broccoli instead of cauliflower. Feel free to try other vegetables as well.
- To add more flavor to the chickpeas, try adding smoked paprika and chipotle powder before roasting.
- Use any leafy greens you like. I love using spinach and arugula, but mixed greens would work well too.
- For added crunch and healthy fats, try topping your salad with sunflower seeds. You can also use pumpkin seeds or hemp hearts.

This recipe serves 4 large salads or 6 smaller salads.
You can add smoked paprika and chipotle powder to the chickpeas before roasting. Start with 1 teaspoon of paprika and 1/2 teaspoon of chipotle to taste.
Feel free to switch the cauliflower for broccoli or a mix of both.
I love using roasted sunflower seeds for topping. You can also use pumpkin seeds or hemp hearts.
If you like your salads with more dressing, double the dressing recipe. You can also keep any leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Thank you! I made this for the first time today and it’s a nice change from what I usually make for dinner, sometimes I get in a dilemma figuring out what plant-based meals to make and I have gotten bored with the same things. I had some canned mushrooms in my cupboard also a bag of frozen broccoli florets, also a few leftover white potatoes, and a couple of large sweet potatoes. Also a half-empty jar of tahini. when I received this recipe in my email yesterday I knew I had to make it, it turned out really good with the sauce, I’ll be checking out your other meal recipes, too!
