# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Set the oven to 220°C and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Combine miso paste, maple syrup, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and olive oil in a bowl. Toss sweet potato cubes in the mixture until fully coated. Arrange evenly on one lined baking sheet.

Pat the chickpeas dry with paper towels. Toss them with olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, and salt. Spread uniformly on the second baking sheet.

Place both trays in the oven and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, turning halfway through, until sweet potatoes caramelize and chickpeas turn golden and crisp.
05 -
While roasting, prepare quinoa according to package directions if not already cooked.
06 -
Whisk together tahini, lemon juice, maple syrup, water, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Add additional water to desired consistency.

Distribute cooked quinoa evenly among four bowls. Layer each with mixed salad greens, roasted sweet potatoes, crispy chickpeas, julienned carrot, sliced avocado, toasted sesame seeds, and sliced green onions.

Drizzle the tahini dressing over the assembled ingredients and serve immediately.
