Ingredients

4 whole sweet potatoes washed and cut in half lengthwise
2 bunches broccoli rabe washed and leaves picked away
3 tablespoons olive oil divided
2 teaspoons kosher salt divided
2 teaspoons black pepper divided
1/4 cup plain hummus
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
Sesame seeds for topping
Crushed red pepper flakes for topping

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and prepare 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
Place the sweet potatoes cut side down onto the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the potatoes and rub the olive oil over the potatoes. Season the potatoes 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
Add to the oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the potatoes are soft. The timing may change based on the size of your potatoes.
Put the broccoli rabe onto the other prepared baking sheet, drizzle with remaining olive oil and toss with remaining kosher salt and black pepper.
Add to the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until roasted. I cook the potatoes and the broccoli rabe at the same time.
While your vegetables are baking add hummus, lemon juice and smoked paprika to a small bowl. Stir to combine.
Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time until the hummus mixture is just loose enough to drizzle, set aside.
To assemble, lightly smash down the cut side of the sweet potato, top with roasted broccoli rabe and drizzle with the desired amount of hummus.
