PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • 2

    Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then toss them with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy, stirring halfway through.

  • 3

    While the chickpeas are roasting, chop the cauliflower into florets and steam or boil until very tender, about 10 minutes.

  • 4

    In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the steamed cauliflower, Greek yogurt, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  • 5

    Pour the cauliflower sauce into a baking dish, and sprinkle the roasted chickpeas evenly on top. Add the shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese over the layer.

  • 6

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese is slightly melted and the dish is heated through.

  • 7

    Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
