PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  • 2

    Toss the drained chickpeas with half the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking tray and roast for about 20-25 minutes until crispy, stirring halfway through.

  • 3

    Meanwhile, steam or boil the cauliflower florets until tender, about 8-10 minutes, then drain well.

  • 4

    In a blender, combine the steamed cauliflower, unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy, adjusting thickness as desired.

  • 5

    Pour the cauliflower sauce into a baking dish, and gently stir in most of the roasted chickpeas, reserving a few for topping.

  • 6

    Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes to meld the flavors.

  • 7

    Remove from the oven, sprinkle the remaining chickpeas on top for added crunch, and serve warm.
