Instructions

  1. Roast Cauliflower and Carrots: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Chop cauliflower and carrots into bite-sized pieces. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil the surface. Spread the cauliflower and carrots in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Roast for 25-30 minutes, then remove from the oven, add lemon juice and chopped parsley, toss lightly, and return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes or until cauliflower is golden brown.
  2. Roast Chickpeas and Sweet Potatoes: While the first tray roasts, prepare another rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Rinse and drain the chickpeas, pat dry with a paper towel, and discard any loose skins. In a bowl, toss chickpeas with olive oil, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well coated. Spread chickpeas on one half of the baking sheet in a single layer. Dice the sweet potato and add it to the other half of the baking sheet. Drizzle sweet potatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast together in the oven on the middle rack for 20-28 minutes, stirring halfway through if desired, until crispy and tender.
  3. Prepare Tahini Yogurt Sauce: While the vegetables roast, combine tahini, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, and salt in a food processor or blender. Blend for about 60 seconds until smooth. For a thinner consistency, gradually add a tablespoon of water until desired thickness is reached.
  4. Assemble the Bowl: In serving bowls, spoon a generous amount of tahini yogurt sauce. Layer with arugula or preferred greens, followed by roasted sweet potatoes, cauliflower, carrots, and chickpeas. Add any additional favorite toppings and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice. Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious glow bowl!

Notes

  • Roasting times may vary depending on your oven; check vegetables frequently after the initial roasting period.
  • For a vegan version, use plant-based yogurt instead of Greek yogurt.
  • Feel free to customize toppings with nuts, seeds, or avocado for added texture and nutrients.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat or enjoy cold.
  • You can swap arugula for any greens like spinach, kale, or mixed salad leaves.
