Little Gem Vegan Ranch Salad

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Add all of the chickpea ingredients to the baking sheet and toss to coat. Place in the oven on the middle rack for 30 minutes, tossing every 10 minutes - be sure to keep an eye on them the last 10 minutes, to make sure they don't burn. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.

Step 3

Meanwhile, add all of the vegan ranch ingredients to a bowl and mix to combine. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. Set aside.

Step 4

Remove the stems from the lettuce and break off the leaves. Wash and dry the lettuce. Place the lettuce in a large mixing bowl and add as much of the dressing as you'd like. Toss until coated.

Step 5

To serve, transfer the lettuce to a platter and finish it off with the harissa chickpeas, sunflower seeds and vegan parmesan.
