Serving

5 cups sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cups parsnips, peeled and diced
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp ras el hanout spice mix
3 carrots, peeled and cut crosswise into 2 inch pieces
1 tsp kosher salt
1 1/4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup uncooked couscous
1 (15 oz) can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1 tbsp olive oil
1 yellow onion , cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices then separated into rings
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup raisins
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp honey

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450°F
Mix the first 5 ingredients in a large bowl then stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place potato mixture on a baking sheet. Bake at 450F for 30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
While potatoes are baking, bring broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in couscous and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Remove from heat then cover and let stand 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Next, gently stir in chickpeas. Keep warm.
