This seemingly simple roasted cauliflower main dish has a complex flavor profile, thanks to cumin, cinnamon, and a lemony dressing. The chickpeas and raisins provide two additional textures that round out the whole recipe. It’s a good option to prep in advance and take to work or school for lunch, especially since it can be served warm or cold.
