Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained, rinsed & patted dry
- 1 small zucchini, sliced into half moons
- 2 medium carrots, cut into thin sticks or coins
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2–3 tsp Tasty Tin Garlic Dust (divided)*
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- 4 dairy-free flatbreads or pita rounds
- Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
- 3 tbsp tahini (sesame-based, nut-free)
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tsp Garlic Dust*

Instructions
- 1Season the Chickpeas and Vegetables
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the chickpeas, zucchini, carrots, and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, 1½ teaspoons Garlic Dust, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- 2Roast Until Golden
Spread the vegetables and chickpeas in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 20–25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until the chickpeas are crispy and the vegetables are tender with lightly browned edges.
- 3Make the Lemon Tahini Drizzle
While the vegetables roast, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon Garlic Dust, water, and a pinch of salt until smooth and pourable. Add more water, one teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach your desired consistency.
- 4Warm the Flatbreads
Warm the flatbreads in the oven for a few minutes or heat them in a dry skillet until soft and pliable.
- 5Assemble the Flatbreads
Divide the roasted chickpeas and vegetables evenly among the warm flatbreads.
- 6Finish and Serve
Drizzle generously with the lemon tahini sauce and sprinkle with fresh parsley or cilantro. Slice into halves or quarters and serve warm or at room temperature.
