Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425ºF (220ºC).
• Cut the sweet potatoes in small cubes and transfer on one half of a non-stick baking sheet.
• Peel and slice the onion and set aside.
• Add the chickpeas to the other half of the baking sheet.
• In a liquid measuring cup with a pour spout, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, cayenne, salt, and pepper and mix well.
• Pour half of the dressing over the sweet potatoes and chickpeas and mix with your hands until well-coated. Keep the chickpeas and sweet potatoes separated as much as possible.
• Scoot the chickpeas toward the sweet potatoes and add the onions to the baking sheet. Make sure everything is spread out evenly.
• Bake for 30 minutes, until the sweet potatoes are tender. Use tongs to stir halfway through. Let cool for 20 minutes.
• Place the greens in a large bowl. Top with the roasted chickpeas, sweet potatoes, and onion.
• Add the parsley, cilantro, and remaining dressing and toss to combine.
• Top with dried cranberries, if using.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Arrange chickpeas in 1 layer on paper towels and allow to air-dry while frying other ingredients.
• Heat oil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat until deep-fat thermometer registers 365°F.
• While oil is heating, peel sweet potato and, using peeler (preferably Y-shaped), shave enough thin strips to measure 2 cups (reserve remaining sweet potato for another use).
• Fry sweet-potato shavings, 1/2 cup at a time, until golden and just crisp, about 1 minute, then transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. (Return oil to 365°F between batches.)
• Cool oil to 340°F.
• Fry pumpkin seeds in 2 batches, covered (seeds will pop and splatter), until puffed (but not brown), 30 seconds to 1 minute, then transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. (Return oil to 340°F between batches.)
• Fry chiles until crisp but still red, about 1 minute, then transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
• Fry chickpeas in 2 batches until golden and crisp throughout, 5 to 10 minutes, then transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
• Toss sweet-potato crisps, pumpkin seeds, chiles, chickpeas, and raisins with sugar, cayenne, and salt to taste.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to the 450 degrees F.
• Cook the sweet potatoes: Place the sweet potatoes in the center of the oven and bake until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Let cool slPeel the potatoes and cut them crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices. Arrange them in an 8-by-12-inch baking dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Flavor the sweet potatoes: Meanwhile, in a medium pot, bring the sugar and 1/2 cup water to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in the vinegar and pumpkin pie spice and cook until syrupy, 5 to 8 minutes. Pour over the potatoes.
• Bake and serve: Toss the marshmallows with the melted butter in a large bowl, use a fine-mesh strainer to sprinkle them evenly with the cayenne and arrange them on the potatoes. Bake until the marshmallows puff and brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Set the oven to broil and broil the tops for 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle with the pecans.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Divide the potatoes and shallots between two 10-inch cast-iron skillets. Evenly drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until the potatoes are cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• For the chickpeas: Lay the chickpeas out on a flat surface and dry them as much as you can using paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the coriander, cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium heat until shimmering. Line a large plate with paper towels. Working in two batches, add the chickpeas to the skillet so they are in a single layer and cook, stirring frequently, until golden and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chickpeas to the prepared plate and add the spice mixture. Toss everything together until combined; this helps to bloom the spices while the chickpeas are still warm.
• Garnish the potatoes in the skillets with the chickpeas and finish with the mint.

Steps:

• Mash sweet potatoes well.
• In a large bowl combine and mix well pumpkin, sweet potatoes, milk, eggs, spices, vanilla, sugars, and syrup.

Steps:

• Remove all the pulp and strings from the pumpkin seeds, then wash and thoroughly dry the seeds.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place the melted butter in a bowl, toss the seeds in the butter to coat, and pour them onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon over the seeds, stir the seeds around to mix the coating, and spread them into a single layer. Bake the seeds in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
• Remove the seeds from the oven, and sprinkle them with another coating of 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon, mixing the seeds together and spreading them out as before. Bake 5 more minutes. Repeat the coating and baking step one more time, and bake the seeds for 5 more minutes.
• Sprinkle the seeds with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar, mix, and bake the sugar coating onto the seeds, about 10 more minutes. Let the seeds cool on the baking sheet before eating.
