1. Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. Next, to a medium sized mixing bowl, add your maple mustard sauce ingredients, olive oil, maple syrup, dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar and sea salt. Whisk to combine.
3. Then, to the same bowl, add your diced tempeh and stir until tempeh is fully coated. Let sit to marinate for 15-20 minutes.
4. Next, prepare your veggies, peel and dice to ensure they are all similar in size. Then, to a large mixing bowl, add your veggies with extra virgin olive oil and seasoning. Stir until fully coated.
5. Add your prepared veggies to your lined baking sheet, leaving 1/3 of the baking sheet empty for the tempeh. Add your tempeh to the baking sheet and spread out evenly.
6. Place your baking sheet in the oven and set a timer for 40 minutes, flip tempeh and vegetables half way through. Roasting time may vary based on size of diced tempeh and vegetables.
7. While your vegetables and tempeh are roasting, prepare your brown rice or grain of choice, slice you avocado and prep any other toppings.
8. Then, make your tahini sauce by combining your tahini, minced garlic, lemon juice and sea salt. Whisk to combine and slowly add water to thin.
9. When vegetables and tempeh are done roasting, remove from oven and prepare your bowls.
10. Add a layer of brown rice or grain, top with roasted vegetables, tempeh, sliced avocado, tahini sauce and any additional toppings of your choosing.
11. Serve hot and enjoy!
