Caffeine Free Roasted Cauliflower Salad with Tahini Dressing

Roasted cauliflower gets the full treatment here — tossed with cumin, turmeric, and smoked paprika, then blasted in a hot oven until the edges go deeply golden and the chickpeas crisp up just enough to add a satisfying bite. The whole thing lands on a bed of peppery baby arugula with dried cranberries and freshly toasted pumpkin seeds, so every forkful has something going on — warmth, brightness, a little chew, a little crunch. The tahini dressing ties it all together with lemon juice, grated garlic, and a drizzle of olive oil whisked into something silky and bold. This is the kind of salad that actually fills you up, thanks to the protein from the chickpeas and the richness of the tahini. Every ingredient in this recipe is naturally free of stimulants, so there's no need to scan labels or swap anything out — it's straightforwardly clean from start to finish. Serve it warm right off the sheet pan for the best contrast with the cool greens, or let the roasted components cool slightly if you prefer a more composed platter.
