This salad brings together roasted cauliflower and sweet potatoes for deep, caramelized flavor, finished with a creamy tahini drizzle that ties everything together. It’s hearty without being heavy and works beautifully as a main or a generous side.

This is Let’s Veg comfort with balance and depth.
