- While the bulgur soaks, toss the cauliflower, chickpeas and bell pepper on the sheet pan with the olive oil, cumin, paprika, black pepper and half of the salt.
- Roast 25 minutes, stirring once, until the cauliflower is browned at the edges and the chickpeas are crisp.
- Toast the pumpkin seeds on a corner of the sheet pan for the last 5 minutes of roasting.
- Make the dressing: whisk the greek yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, mint and the remaining half of the salt in a small bowl.
- In a large bowl, toss the spinach with the warm bulgur so it wilts slightly, then add the roasted cauliflower, chickpeas and bell pepper.
- Spoon the yogurt dressing over the salad and toss gently.
- Top with the feta and toasted pumpkin seeds and serve.
