Make

Heat oven to 425F / 218C. Set out two sheet pans.
On the first sheet pan, toss cauliflower, sweet potatoes, olive oil, paprika and some salt and pepper. Transfer to the oven and roast, shaking the pan halfway through cooking, until vegetables are tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
Place puff pastry on the second sheet pan and slice into 8 small rectangles (amount for 4 servings; adjust if customizing). Fill the center of each rectangle with mushrooms. Tear cheese slices and top mushrooms with cheese. Dip your fingers in water and run your fingers around the edges of each rectangle. Fold puff pastry rectangles over to enclose filling and press edges to enclose (the water should help the pastry to stick).
Cut a slit in the top of each pastry.
Whisk egg and brush over tops of puff pastry. Sprinkle with garlic powder and Italian seasoning.
Bake hot pockets until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
When vegetables are tender, toss with parsley and capers.
Serve hot pockets with roasted vegetables on the side. Enjoy!
