Ingredients
1 small head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 (14-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 medium sweet potato, cut into small cubes
2 tablespoons za’atar seasoning
Kosher salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
Cucumbers, for garnish
Grape tomatoes, for garnish
Red cabbage, for garnish
Feta crumbles, for garnish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F and lightly coat a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
Spread cauliflower, chickpeas, and sweet potato in an even layer on the pan.
Drizzle with olive oil and season with za’atar, salt, and pepper; toss to coat evenly.
Roast 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway, until vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
While roasting, whisk Greek yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper to make the sauce.
Assemble bowls: add roasted veggies, then top with cucumbers, grape tomatoes, red cabbage, feta, and drizzle with lemon yogurt sauce.
Notes
Substitute vegetables as desired (broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, squash, eggplant).
Add cooked grains like quinoa, brown rice, or wild rice for a heartier meal.
Use dairy-free yogurt and skip feta for a vegan version.
Add chili flakes or jalapeños for heat.
Store roasted vegetables and sauce separately for up to 4 days; reheat vegetables before serving.
