1 (15 oz) can mixed beans, drained and rinsed

Preheat oven to 400F. In a large bowl, combine sweet potato, parsnip, carrots, 2 tbsp olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Transfer mixture to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 25-35 minutes, until vegetables are tender and golden. Toss cauliflower and chickpeas and return to oven to bake for an additional 15 minutes. Allow vegetables to cool. To make the dressing, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, lemon zest and juice, and hot sauce. In a large bowl, toss roasted vegetables, beans, onion, cilantro, and dressing.
