Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium head of cauliflower (about 4 cups florets)
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon (about 2 tbsp)
  • 1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and place in a bowl with chickpeas. Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and oregano until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the mixture on the baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and parsley until smooth.
  5. Once the cauliflower and chickpeas are roasted, cool slightly before mixing them with the dressing in a large serving bowl.
  6. Serve immediately warm or refrigerate to enjoy it cold.
