For the baked sweet potatoes, preheat oven to 400ºF. Cut the sweet potato into 3/4 cubes and spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.


You can cook the chickpeas the same way. First drain and rinse the chickpeas and then place on a large tea towel and pat completely dry. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and follow the sweet potatoes cooking instructions.
