Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas thoroughly. Spread them out on a baking sheet and pat dry with a paper towel.
Roast the chickpeas by tossing them with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden and crispy.
Prepare the lemon-tahini dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked quinoa, roasted chickpeas, roasted vegetables, and baby spinach.
Pour the lemon-tahini dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently to combine, ensuring everything is coated evenly with the dressing.
Serve the salad chilled or at room temperature. Optionally, garnish with additional lemon zest or fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro before serving.
