Preheat oven to 400º F (can put the heat up to 425º F).
Wash jacket potatoes, pierce several time with a fork, and place in oven for 40 - 45 minutes or until soft when squeezed.
Pro Tip: If pressed for time, you can par cook the potatoes in the microwave for 8-10 minutes on high (don't forget to pierce them first!). Then finish them in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until tender.
OR Sweet Potatoes if you prefer: Wash sweet potatoes, cut in half lengthwise, season the cut side with lime juice, a sprinkle of cinnamon and cumin and place cut side down on a baking sheet covered with parchment.
Cook for until fork tender (about 20 - 25 minutes depending on size).
Baked Sheet Pan Vegetables
Meanwhile, cut the cauliflower and broccoli into florets. Toss with 1 tablespoon of oil (or a splash of lemon if oil free) and taco seasoning or seasoning of your choice.
Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet covered in parchment paper.Place in oven until tender, around 20- 25 minutes. Stir halfway through.
Beans in Sauce - to amp up the flavor, pour a tin of beans in tomato sauce into a small saucepan, add ¼ cup smoky bbq sauce (to taste), a generous squirt of sriracha sauce and a couple teaspoons of chili powder. Cook over medium heat until bubbling. Remove from heat.
Putting it All Together
Split the baked potatoes open, add butter, bbq beans, roasted vegetables, cashew cream and green onions. Top with slaw (tomatoes & avocados if using).
Notes
This meal is a great way to use up bits and pieces of leftover beans, baked or grilled vegetables, sauce, etc. Adding fresh tomatoes, avocado, slaw and creamy drizzle is the perfect topper to this satisfying vegan comfort meal.
