Ingredients

Scale

For the Roasted Vegetables

  • 4 medium Yukon Gold or red potatoes, cut into thick wedges

  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained, rinsed, and thoroughly dried

  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced into strips

  • 1 large red onion, cut into wedges

  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano

  • ¼½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For the Herbed Vegan Yogurt Sauce

  • 1 cup unsweetened plain plant-based yogurt (coconut, almond, or soy)

  • 1 tablespoon tahini (optional)

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

  • 1 small garlic clove, finely minced or grated

  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped

  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped

  • Salt to taste

Optional Toppings

  • Extra fresh dill or parsley

  • A drizzle of olive oil

  • Lemon zest

  • Toasted pine nuts or sesame seeds

  • Sliced cucumbers or cherry tomatoes


Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2: Season the Potatoes

Place the potato wedges in a large bowl. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with half of the smoked paprika, cumin, coriander, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss well and spread on one side of the baking sheet in a single layer, cut-side down.

Step 3: Prepare the Chickpeas and Vegetables

In the same bowl, combine the chickpeas, red bell pepper slices, and red onion wedges. Add the remaining olive oil and spices. Toss to coat evenly and spread onto the other side of the baking sheet.

Step 4: Roast the Vegetables

Roast in the preheated oven for 25–35 minutes. Halfway through cooking, flip the potatoes and stir the chickpeas and vegetables. Roast until potatoes are golden and crisp, chickpeas are slightly crunchy, and vegetables are caramelized.

Step 5: Make the Herbed Yogurt Sauce

In a bowl, whisk together the plant-based yogurt, tahini (if using), lemon juice, minced garlic, dill, parsley, and salt until smooth and creamy. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Step 6: Assemble the Bowl

Spread a generous layer of the herbed yogurt sauce in each serving bowl. Top with roasted potatoes, chickpeas, red peppers, and red onions.

Step 7: Garnish and Serve

Finish with fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, lemon zest, or your favorite toppings. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

Dry chickpeas thoroughly before roasting to help them become crispy.

Do not overcrowd the baking sheet, or the vegetables may steam instead of roast.

This recipe is great for meal prep—store the roasted vegetables and sauce separately for up to 4 days in the refrigerator.

Serve with quinoa, couscous, or warm pita bread for a more filling Mediterranean meal.
