We call this a boost bowl because it is packed with vegan/vegetarian fuel, giving your body a break from animal protein. If you've been slacking on your vegetable intake this is a great way to make up for it. Or you can always add this as a side dish or appetizer to any meal! Even the meat lovers went back for seconds. It's filling, very nutritious, and also makes a fantastic side dish.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven, flipping vegetables halfway, until sprouts and potatoes are tender and crispy, about 40 minutes.

If vegetables are not crispy enough, you can broil them for a minute or two.
