Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss the cubed sweet potatoes, cauliflower florets, and sliced carrots with olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
- Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the baking sheet to ensure they roast rather than steam.
- Roast for 30–35 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the vegetables have a mahogany-colored crust and are tender.
- While the vegetables roast, whisk together tahini, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and minced garlic.
- Gradually add warm water to the dressing and whisk until the sauce reaches a velvety, pourable consistency.
- Assemble the bowls by dividing the baby kale, cooked quinoa, chickpeas, diced cucumber, and sliced red onion among four bowls.
- Top the fresh elements with the roasted vegetables.
- Drizzle the Maple Dijon Tahini sauce over the bowls and garnish with chopped parsley, torn mint, and chopped cilantro.
