By Vegiegail

Ingredients

• 1 small-medium sweet potato, cubed
• 1 medium red pear, cubed
• 1/4 of a red onion, chopped
• 1/3 c. garbanzo beans
• 1 / 2 T. basil oil (or olive oil – or coconut oil, maybe?)
• 1/2 T. maple syrup
• 1/4 t. ground cinnamon
• 1/8 t. maple pepper
• 1/8 t. garlic salt
• 2 dried figs, chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350*.

Combine the sweet potato, pear, beans and red onion in a bowl, and toss with olive oil and maple syrup. When evenly coated, stir in all the seasonings. Spread evenly onto a rimmed baking sheet and cover with tinfoil. Bake for 30 mins.

After 30 minutes, remove foil and gently stir. Add in the figs, and return to oven, baking for another 30 minutes.

Serve with a side of bulgur and spinach!
