How to Make Glow Bowl

Ingredients:

1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
3 large carrots, cut into round pieces
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil (more as needed)
½ tsp garlic powder
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp salt (more to taste)
¼ tsp ground black pepper
½ large lemon, juiced (about 2 Tbsp)
¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
1 can chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans (15.5 oz-16 oz)
1 sweet potato, diced
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp paprika
¼ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp salt (more to taste)
⅕ tsp ground black pepper (more to taste)
1 cup Greek yogurt (or plant-based yogurt, any fat content works)
¼ cup tahini
1 large lemon, juiced (about ¼ cup of lemon juice)
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp salt
Arugula (or greens of choice, optional)
Toppings of choice (optional)

Directions:

Step 1: For Roasted Carrots and Cauliflower
Preheat your oven to 425℉/220°C. Chop carrots and cauliflower into bite-sized pieces and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Spray it lightly with oil. Arrange the veggies in a single layer on the pan, coat with oil, garlic powder, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and golden. Toss with lemon juice and parsley before returning to the oven for another 5-10 minutes.

Step 2: For Roasted Chickpeas and Sweet Potatoes
While the first batch roasts, prepare a second baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Rinse and drain chickpeas, drying thoroughly. Toss with olive oil, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Place on one side of the baking sheet. Dice sweet potatoes and mix with oil and seasonings, adding them next to the chickpeas. Roast everything for 20-28 minutes, keeping an eye on them.

Step 3: For Tahini Yogurt Sauce
As your vegetables are roasting, make the tahini yogurt sauce. In a food processor or blender, mix tahini, yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, and salt. Blend until smooth. If you want a thinner consistency, add water a tablespoon at a time.

Step 4: Assemble the Bowl
Now comes the fun part! In a bowl, add a generous scoop of tahini yogurt sauce. Top it with arugula, your roasted chickpeas, sweet potatoes, cauliflower, and carrots. Add your favorite extra toppings, like seeds or nuts, and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice. Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors!
