ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the carrot pieces, the chickpeas, and the onion wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden and cooked through, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway).
QUINOA
Place the rinsed quinoa in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the tails have popped out, 12-15 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain (if necessary). Set aside to steam, about 5 minutes.
MORE TO ROAST
In a bowl, dress the halved green beans with olive oil and seasoning. In a small bowl, combine the honey, a squeeze of lemon juice (to taste), and the chopped nuts. When the roast has 8-10 minutes remaining, scatter the nuts over the green beans and pour over the honey mixture. Roast for the remaining time until all the veggies are cooked through.
CREAMY DRESSING
In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and the lemon zest (to taste). Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency and season.
