Preheat the oven to 400°F. (To roast the veggies.) Start prepping when your oven comes up to temperature!
Prep: Wash and dry all produce. Bring 1 cup salted water to a boil in a small pot. Coarsely chop the parsley. Zest, then juice the lemon.
Roast the veggies: Toss the cauliflower and carrot on a parchment-lined baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, then sprinkle over half the spice blend and as much cayenne as you like. Season with salt and pepper. Wrap the garlic cloves in a small piece of tin foil with a drizzle of oil. Set the foil-wrapped garlic on the baking sheet. Roast in the centre of the oven, stirring the veggies halfway through cooking, until golden brown and the garlic is very soft, 18-20 min.
Cook the quinoa: Meanwhile, add the quinoa and remaining spice blend to the boiling water. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, covered, until quinoa is tender and all the water has been absorbed, 12-15 min.
Make the roasted garlic vinaigrette: Unwrap the garlic. In a large bowl, use a fork to mash the roasted garlic into a paste. Add the lemon juice, 11/2 tsp honey, and a drizzle of oil. Whisk until combined.
Finish and serve: Fluff the quinoa with a fork. Add the quinoa, cauliflower, carrot, arugula, parsley, lemon zest and chickpeas into the vinaigrette. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the salad divided between bowls. Enjoy!
