How to Make a Glow Bowl
Step 1: Roast the Carrots and Cauliflower
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Cut the carrots and cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with oil.
Spread the vegetables in a single layer, drizzle with oil, sprinkle with spices, and roast for 25 30 minutes.
Remove from the oven, add lemon juice and parsley, then return to bake for an additional 5 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower turns golden brown.
Step 2: Prepare the Roasted Chickpeas and Sweet Potatoes
Line a second baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse and pat dry the chickpeas, removing any loose skins.
In a bowl, toss the chickpeas with olive oil and your favorite spices, then spread them over half of the baking sheet.
Add diced sweet potatoes to the other half, drizzle with oil, season with salt, and roast for 20 28 minutes, or until tender and slightly crisp.
Step 3: Make the Tahini Yogurt Sauce
In a food processor, blend together tahini, yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, and salt.
If you prefer a thinner sauce, add a splash of water gradually until the consistency is smooth and pourable.
Step 4: Assemble Your Glow Bowl
Spoon a generous layer of tahini yogurt sauce into the bottom of your serving dish.
Top with arugula, roasted sweet potatoes, cauliflower, carrots, and chickpeas.
Add any extra toppings you love such as fresh herbs, seeds, or avocado and finish with a squeeze of lemon before serving.
