Preparation

Step 1


Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line two baking trays.


Step 2


Toss the bread cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, and oregano. Bake for about 15 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crisp.


Step 3


Toss the chickpeas with olive oil, paprika, and garlic powder. Roast for about 20 minutes, shaking halfway through, until crispy.


Step 4


Blend or process the walnuts, nutritional yeast, and garlic powder until finely crumbly to make the walnut parmesan.


Step 5


Whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, garlic, capers, caper brine, Dijon mustard, water, salt, and pepper until smooth. Add more water if needed to thin the dressing.


Step 6


In a large bowl combine the romaine, avocado (if using), roasted chickpeas, and croutons. Toss with the desired amount of dressing.


Step 7


Finish with the walnut parmesan and serve immediately.
