    • 1 can chickpeas (1516 oz), rinsed & dried
    • 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
    • 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp oregano
    • 3/4 tsp garlic powder
    • 3/41 tsp kosher salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper
    • 1/2 lemon, juiced; 2 tbsp parsley (optional)
  • Tahini Yogurt Dressing
    • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or plant yogurt)
    • 1/4 cup tahini
    • 1 large lemon, juiced
    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • 1 small garlic clove, minced
    • 1/2 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp kosher salt
    • 13 tbsp water to thin
  • For the Bowls
    • 4 cups arugula or greens
    • Cooked quinoa or brown rice (optional)
    • Pumpkin seeds, hemp hearts, herbs, lemon wedges

Instructions

  1. Season the veggies: Heat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line two sheet pans. Toss cauliflower and carrots with half the oil, half the spices, salt and pepper. Spread on pan 1.
  2. Prep potatoes & chickpeas: On pan 2, toss diced sweet potatoes and dried chickpeas with remaining oil and spices; season.
  3. Roast: Bake both pans 20–25 minutes, tossing once. Add lemon juice and parsley to pan 1, toss, then roast 5–10 minutes more until edges are browned and chickpeas are crisp.
  4. Make dressing: Blend yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin and salt until silky. Thin with water as needed.
  5. Assemble: Swirl dressing in bowls. Add greens, roasted veggies and chickpeas. Top with seeds and a squeeze of lemon.

Notes

Meal prep tip: store components separately (veggies 4–5 days refrigerated; chickpeas loosely covered at room temp 1 day). Re-crisp in a hot oven before serving. Use plant yogurt for dairy-free.
