Vegan Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with Crispy Chickpeas | The First Mess (2024)

Great recipe.

this recipe is devine ! and it came together so quickly.
the first bite and I was in heaven~*
it even looked like the picture (almost)
– total show stopper.
Will definitely make again!!

I love this recipe! The flavors are rich and filling. I always go back to it when I’m craving a sweet potato dish.

Thank you for this lovely recipe!
It turned out delicious- forgot to take pics and post.
Decided to type my gratitude:

This recipie was delicious! It was spicy, but if you ise less soicy ingredients it should taste just as good. The ingredients were easy to find and following the recipie was easy. I would definitely do it again!

I made this last night for dinner and served it with Vegan Schnitzels – (shouldn’t of had them as the Sweet Potato was so filling). Not being a lover of Chick Peas this was a delicious filling dinner and I will make it again! There were a few ingredients that I didn’t have like Tamari – replaced with Soy Sauce, Garlic Powder with Onion Powder and I used a little bit of Scriracha as the hot sauce. I also don’t really like Tahini but put the required amount into it, and I can’t believe how a few ingredients that I don’t like made it delicious. Thanks for a great recipe.

This a new favorite, this recipe has a lot of flavor and is very satisfying.

Probably too much soy sauce. It’s a bit salty but still good with veggies. thanks for your response!

hi! I saw your posts on Healthy-ish and got excited about ramps, too! I made this sauce, I just love tahini- and because of the soy sauce it turned very dark. How come your pictures have a lovely creamy sauce?

I made this. Two nights in a row….
Amazing dish and beautiful to look at!

Just made these for dinner and was blown away by both the awesome flavors of the sauce/chickpea/sweet potato combo and the fact that it took a half hour….served with sauteed garlicky greens…Delicious!!!!

This looks a little bit too delicious. I need it now. Definitely trying these out!

You made these sweet potatoes look beautiful!!! I totally feel you – I just got her cookbook last week, and found myself immediately bookmarking SO many recipes! Can’t wait to try them all this summer xx

Thank you for the awesome recipe…just made it for dinner…big hit with the family :)

Those sweet potatoes look BEE-YOO-TIFUL! This is such an amazing recipe for brunch or dinner!

I make tahini sauce in so many variations at least twice a week, this one looks like a winner! I am really into recipes right now that are cozy and fresh, kind of replicating the spring weather outside! Gorgeous photos as always <3

This sounds sooooo good and your photos are drool-worthy. Just gorgeous.

Thank you so much for this post! I love your site and the minimalist baker, but how on earth have i only just discovered Jessica?! I’ve spent all day on her site listening to podcasts and it’s really been so great. My husband recently has found out that he has high cholesterol and triglycerides genetically and we really need to limit his fats, sugars, carbs, etc and we’ve been trying to embrace the changes. The doctor told us not to go to extremes, but when it’s someone you love it’s hard not to. In true cook form, I’ve embraced the challenges and what an amazing thing to find a community of people who’ve already embraced and have fallen in love with alternative diets.

Exquisite recipe! Thanks for sharing :)

Yes to everything you said here – this book is magic, just like Dana’s blog! I love it’s approachability – and being so delicious I feel like it would fool anyone as “healthy” food. These potatoes are so cozy! Perfect for the overcast day we had today. Gotta try that tahini ;) XO

Yum yum yum. Never have enough variations of stuffed sweet potatoes, and this one looks bomb. Those crispy meaty chickpeas are the perfect addition, love Dana’s cooking style :) xx

Such a great choice from the cookbook! Chickpeas + sweet potatoes are such an amazing combination. And as a food blogger, I know how awesome it is when you get to kind of take a break a little and cook using someone else’s recipe. It’s such a nice rest! And what better hands to be in than Dana’s :D

I really love sweet potatoes and your mouth watering recipe is cool. I am going to try this recipe soon. :)

I’m slightly ashamed to admit that I’ve never stuffed a sweet potato before. I think it’s time I go mend the error of my ways, with tahini sauce and sauteed chickpeas.

I don’t loooove sweet potatoes (I know!), but these are making me change my tune! Killing it with the pictures girl :)

I’m can’t think of anything I’d love more than to be eating this right now! Omg, these look incredible and ginger tahini sauce, AGH I can’t handle it, YUM!! I really have to try these!
