# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut cauliflower into florets and slice carrots into rounds. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil it. Spread cauliflower and carrots in a single layer, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic powder, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven, add lemon juice and parsley, then return to oven for an additional 5-10 minutes until vegetables are golden and tender.
02 - While vegetables roast, rinse and drain chickpeas, pat dry thoroughly, discarding loose skins. On a second parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, toss chickpeas with olive oil, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Arrange chickpeas on one side in a single layer. Add diced sweet potatoes to the other side, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven together for 20-28 minutes, turning chickpeas halfway for even crisping.
03 - Combine tahini, Greek or plant-based yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, ground cumin, and salt in a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth, approximately 60 seconds. For thinner consistency, gradually add water one tablespoon at a time until desired texture is reached.
04 - In serving bowls, spread a layer of tahini yogurt sauce. Top with arugula or preferred greens, roasted sweet potatoes, cauliflower, carrots, and chickpeas. Add additional toppings and a final squeeze of lemon if desired.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For best texture, rinse and thoroughly dry chickpeas before roasting to ensure crispiness.
02 - Pre-cut vegetables can be used to reduce preparation time.
03 - Store roasted vegetables and tahini sauce separately in airtight containers refrigerated for up to 4-5 days. Store roasted chickpeas at room temperature in a loosely covered container for up to 7 days.
