How to Prepare Sesame Ginger Tray Bake [Vegan]

Pre-heat oven to 425 F (220 C)
In a small bowl, whisk sesame paste, coconut aminos, tamari, ginger, garlic, sriracha, rice vinegar, maple syrup, and sesame seeds until well combined. Set aside.
Prepare your vegetables. Peel and dice the yams into ½ inch cubes. We are cutting them into small bite-sized pieces so that they will cook at the same rate as the other vegetables. Thinly slice the red pepper. Cut the broccolini along the stems, length-wise, leaving the florets attached. Separate and wipe down the bok choy blades, leaving the leaves intact.
Toss the vegetables in a large mixing bowl with the sesame ginger sauce. Using a spatula, or your hands, work the sauce into the vegetables making sure that they are well coated.
Spread the coated vegetables on a baking tray. The yams will take the longest to cook, so make sure that they are on the bottom of the tray.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until yams are fork-tender.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve with your favorite rice.
