# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). Chop cauliflower and carrots into bite-sized pieces. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil it. Arrange cauliflower and carrots in a single layer, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle garlic powder, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Roast for 25–30 minutes until tender. Remove from oven, drizzle with lemon juice, add parsley if using, and return to oven for an additional 5–10 minutes until cauliflower is golden brown.
02 - On a second parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, spread rinsed and dried chickpeas, discarding any loosened skins. Toss chickpeas with olive oil, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until coated. Place chickpeas on one half of the baking sheet in a single layer. Add diced sweet potatoes to the other half, drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and toss. Roast alongside vegetables for 20–28 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender and chickpeas are crispy.
03 - Combine Greek yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, and salt in a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth, approximately 60 seconds. For a thinner consistency, add water one tablespoon at a time until desired texture is achieved.
04 - In serving bowls, spread a base layer of tahini yogurt sauce. Top with arugula or greens, roasted sweet potatoes, carrots, cauliflower, and crispy chickpeas. Add optional toppings and a final squeeze of lemon juice before serving.

# Extra Information:

01 - Chop vegetables in advance for meal prep efficiency. Use pre-cut vegetables for faster preparation. Rinse and thoroughly dry chickpeas to achieve optimal crispiness. Store components separately in airtight containers to maintain freshness for up to 4–5 days.
02 - Designate a specific day for batch chopping to streamline weekly meal preparation and establish consistent healthy eating habits.
