Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

3. Clean and rinse sweet potatoes and then cut them into medium dice.
4. Add half of the garlic and herb seasoning, curry powder, paprika, salt, and agave nectar to a bowl. Add the sweet potatoes, tossing until they are completely covered. Place seasoned sweet potatoes on a baking sheet.
5. Add the remainder of the garlic and herb seasoning, curry powder, paprika, salt, and agave nectar to the same bowl. Add cauliflower florets, tossing them until they are evenly seasoned. Place seasoned cauliflower on a baking sheet.
6. Place chickpeas on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
7. Bake sweet potatoes, cauliflower, and chickpeas until tender, about 20 to 25 minutes.
8. Add tomatoes, garlic, and shallots to another sheet pan and bake for 10 to 15 minutes.
9. In a bowl, mix tamari, agave nectar, basil, roasted garlic and shallots, and apple cider vinegar. Add a few tablespoons of water until the dressing reaches the desired texture.
10. Drain and rinse red pepper strips; set aside for service. Fluff couscous and place a portion in the bottom of each bowl. Arrange other ingredients and drizzle with dressing. Garnish with roasted pepitas and dried cranberries.
