Instructions
Preheat & Prep Sheet Pan
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
Season Vegetables & Chickpeas
- In a large bowl, combine chickpeas, cauliflower florets, and potato wedges. Drizzle with olive oil.
- In a small bowl, whisk together all roasting seasonings (paprika, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, pepper).
- Sprinkle seasoning blend over vegetables and chickpeas; toss until everything is evenly coated.
Roast
- Spread the mixture in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan (use two pans if needed to avoid crowding).
- Roast 45–60 minutes, tossing halfway through, until potatoes are tender and crisp and cauliflower is golden.
Make Tahini Herb Dressing
- While the veggies roast, whisk tahini, vegan yogurt, pickle juice, chili sauce, and dressing seasonings in a bowl.
- Add water, 1 Tbsp at a time, whisking until smooth and pourable. Adjust seasoning.
Plate & Serve
- Spoon a generous pool of dressing onto each plate or shallow bowl.
- Top with hot roasted vegetables and chickpeas.
- Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro (optional) and an extra drizzle of chili sauce.
