Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb carrot ( cut on the diagonal in 1/2' pieces)
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp sweet smokey paprika
1 (4 oz) package feta cheese (crumbled
8 -10 large medjool dates ( seeds removed and quartered on the long axis)
1 (14 oz) can garbanzo beans (drained )
1 cup couscous
1 1/4 cups vegetable stock
1 lemon ( reserved for juice)
1 tbsp white sesame seeds
1 tbsp black sesame seed
3/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves (chopped )
sea salt
black pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F Place the carrots, honey, cinnamon, sweet-smokey paprika and olive oil in a cake pan and mix well so all the carrots are coated with the spice/liquid mixture. Cook in the oven for 20 minutes, stir in garbanzo beans and cook an additional 5 minutes.
While the carrots are roasting, prepare the couscous by adding to the boiling hot vegetable stock. Stir well and fluff after about 15 minutes.
Right before the carrots are done roast the sesame seeds quickly in a frying pan. Be careful they don't burn!
Combine the carrots and couscous, lemon juice, date quarters, toasted sesame seeds and crumbled feta cheese or goat cheese and season with the sea salt and pepper to taste. After seasoned just right, add in the cilantro and serve in a bowl warm.
