Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Toss cauliflower and carrots with olive oil and all spices, then spread them evenly on one baking sheet.
Roast for 25 minutes, then add lemon juice and parsley, return to oven for 5–10 more minutes.
Drain, rinse, and pat dry the chickpeas, then toss with spices and olive oil.
Dice the sweet potatoes, season, and place them on the second baking sheet.
Roast both chickpeas and sweet potatoes for 20–28 minutes until crispy and golden.
In a blender or food processor, combine Greek yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, and salt.
Blend until smooth and creamy, adding water as needed to adjust thickness.

To assemble, layer tahini yogurt sauce, greens, roasted vegetables, chickpeas, and sweet potatoes in a bowl.
Top with optional extras like seeds, nuts, or avocado.
Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and serve immediately.
