Easy vegan roasted Broccoli chipotle recipe

Easy vegan grilled broccoli chipotle recipe - lightly charred broccoli florets, tender grilled red peppers, spring onions, lots of seasoning, and a mouthwatering chipotle sticky and sweet sesame speckled topping. Yum!  Say hello to my favorite easy-roasted broccoli salad. This tasty weeknight salad is full of green broccoli goodness, gorgeous sweet and sticky garlic and sesame flavor, sweet roasted peppers, and all the savory coziness you can dream of. It’s a non-salad type of salad because it doesn’t taste like a healthy salad…but it is. Serve it as a side salad that will have everyone eating their veggies, top it over steaming rice or warm noodles, or eat it just as is as a healthy nutrient-rich bowl of deliciousness.

  • 1 Eggplant sliced
  • 2 Red Bell Peppers diced
  • 2 Spring Onions sliced
  • 3 cloves Garlic finely chopped
  • 2 tsp Dried Oregano or fresh
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika

Sauce

  • 3 tbsp Tomato Paste
  • ¼ cup Tamari or Soy Sauce
  • 1 tbsp White Vinegar
  • 2 Chipotle Peppers in adobo sauce minced (use only 1 if you don't want the dish to be too spicy)
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup or orange jam

Topping

  • 4 tbsp Sesame Seeds
  • 1 handful Fresh Basil chopped

Instructions

  • Pour the minced chipotle peppers, white vinegar, tamari sauce, and maple syrup into a small mixing bowl and mix. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 400F (190 degrees Celsius). Place the broccoli florets, eggplant slices, and sliced peppers in a baking dish. Drizzle with sesame oil, half of the spring onions, and the minced garlic. Season with oregano and toss to combine and coat all the vegetables in seasoning and oil.
  • Bake the vegetables in the oven for 30 minutes total - after 20 minutes of baking, remove the vegetables from the oven, drizzle the sauce over, and top with sesame seeds. Use a mixing spoon to combine and return the vegetables to bake for 10 more minutes, or until the broccoli is browned and just lightly charred in places.
  • Serve the vegetables topped with a garnish of fresh basil and the remaining spring onions as a side salad that will have everyone eating their veggies, top it over steaming rice or warm noodles, or eat it just as is as a healthy nutrient-rich bowl of deliciousness.
