Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep and roast the vegetables

Heat the oven to 400°F.

  • Cut the broccoli into 1-inch florets; trim any coarse stems.
  • Peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Rinse the chickpeas. Measure 1 cup [2 cups]; save the rest for another use.

On a sheet pan, toss the broccoli, onion, chickpeas, and tomatoes with 2 to 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper and spread in an even layer. Roast, stirring the vegetables halfway through, until tender and lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes.

When the vegetables are almost done, make the salad and cook the rice.

2

Prep the dressing; make the salad

In a small bowl, stir together the lemon tahini and 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] oil; season to taste with salt and pepper. 

In a large bowl, toss the arugula with 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] of the lemon-tahini dressing (set aside the remaining dressing for serving). Season to taste with salt and pepper. 

3

Cook the rice

In a medium sauce pot over medium heat, cook the rice, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the rice and roasted vegetables to individual bowls and top with the arugula salad. Crumble over the feta and sprinkle with the sunflower seeds and sumac. Serve the remaining dressing on the side.
