Season with salt and pepper. Assemble the salad and drizzle with the tahini dressing and there you have it – a delicious meal.

I made this Roasted Cauliflower Salad for family dinner last night, and it was a hit! The tahini dressing is creamy and so good. My kids usually aren't fans of vegetables, but they loved this dish. It's now our go-to salad for gatherings. I'm proud of how simple yet delicious it turned out!
