And I’m back with another episode of salads that aren’t really salads, roasted cauliflower style. These flavors are addictive. This roasted cauliflower and chickpea salad is served over a whipped roasted red pepper tahini. Start by roasting up our cauliflower and chickpeas and blending up this fiveingredient whipped roasted red pepper tahini. Add the remaining salad ingredients to the sheetpan. Toss it up. Spread out that delicious whipped tahini. Pop and enjoy.
