TIPS

  • Crispier Veggies: Roast the sweet potatoes for 10 minutes before adding the broccoli for an even texture.
  • BBQ Sauce Alternative: Try a homemade BBQ sauce with honey and smoked paprika for a healthier option.
  • Batch Cooking: Double the recipe for meal prep and store leftovers for a quick meal later.
  • Add Variety: Swap out broccoli for asparagus, Brussels sprouts or bell peppers.

VARIATIONS 

  • Spicy Kick: Add chilli flakes or cayenne pepper to the BBQ sauce for extra heat.
  • Herb-Infused: Mix in fresh rosemary or thyme for additional aroma and flavour.
  • Cheesy Twist: Sprinkle a little grated Parmesan over the roasted veggies before serving.
  • Different Proteins: Swap chicken for salmon, turkey or tofu for a plant-based option.
  • Low-Carb Alternative: Substitute sweet potatoes with cauliflower or zucchini.

PREPPING AND STORAGE 

  • Refrigeration: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
