Ingredients needed
The simple ingredients for this recipe are listed fully down in the recipe card but let’s briefly go over what’s needed including a few substitutions you can make as desired!
For the roasted veggies & chickpeas
Butternut squash – Adds natural sweetness and makes the bowls feel hearty and cozy. Sweet potatoes or even regular potatoes work great as a swap.
Broccoli – Brings crunch and roasted edges. Broccolini also works well here!
Cauliflower – Soaks up all the seasoning and caramelizes beautifully.
Red onion – Adds sweetness and depth once roasted.
Chickpeas – For protein and texture. Make sure they’re very dry for max crispiness!
Olive oil, salt + pepper, and spices
For the whipped feta
Feta cheese – The salty, tangy base of the sauce! Full-fat feta gives the creamiest result.
Plain Greek yogurt – Lightens up the feta and makes it ultra smooth PLUS adds additional protein to the whole dish.
Olive oil – Helps everything blend into a creamy, spoonable texture.
Lemon juice – Brightens and balances the richness.
How to make these Veggie Bowls
Just a reminder that you can find the FULL written recipe down in the recipe card, but I want to quickly go over how to make them with visuals for you 🙂
Place the veggies and chickpeas on 2 large baking trays and toss with olive oil + spices. Toss to coat and roast in the oven.
Make the whipped feta by combining all of the ingredients into a food processor and blend until creamy.
To serve, simple divide the whipped feta onto 4 plates and top evenly with the roasted veggies. Super simple and SO good. I love to serve mine with a little quinoa for added protein!
Expert Tips
Roast everything in a single layer so the veggies caramelize instead of steaming.
Dry the chickpeas really well before roasting to help them crisp up.
If your whipped feta is too thick, add a splash of water or more olive oil to loosen it up.
Taste the whipped feta before serving — feta brands vary a lot in saltiness.
Finish with a squeeze of lemon or drizzle of olive oil for extra brightness.
