Grilling out and looking for something other than roasted veggies or baked potatoes to serve on the side? There’s nothing wrong with those classic summer sides, of course, but a viral TikTok recipe is sure to pique your interest if you want to make something different. Not to mention, it looks fancy but is deceptively easy, so you’re sure to impress all your dinner guests!

TikToker @gatherednutrition shared a video of her “life-changing” recipe, and it has racked up 2 million views! “Life-changing harissa carrots and chickpeas with yogurt and feta 🥕,” the video, run by registered dietician Mia, was captioned. Carrots, chickpeas, yogurt, and feta? We love all of those things but have honestly never even thought of mixing them together.

“I love to make a fancy veggie side dish and pair it with a simple protein for dinner,” Mia says in the video, as she plates a recipe of decadent-looking sliced carrots, chickpeas, and other ingredients, with a dressing drizzled on top. “And these crispy, roasted harissa chickpeas and carrots with feta and yogurt are a prime example.”

Start by roasting the carrots, which will be sliced in half and tossed with honey, garlic powder, and other ingredients. Once those are baking, drain and rinse the chickpeas, mixing with harissa and other ingredients. When the carrots are halfway done, add the chickpeas to the same pan, returning to the oven. Everything will be nice and crispy and caramelized by the end. Yum!

By the end, she layers everything on a nice serving dish. It looks absolutely amazing! (She also shared the full recipe on her Gathered Nutrition site HERE .)

People were loving it in the comments. “Side dish? Nah I’m making this for dinner,” one person wrote. Another said, “This looks immaculate.”

“i’ve never book marked a recipe so fast,” someone else wrote. Other people offered tweaks, like using sweet potatoes instead of carrots or putting hummus or blended cottage cheese as the base instead of yogurt. Any variation sounds divine.

We have TikTok to thank for many delicious recipes ( cucumber salad , anyone?), and it’s clear this will be no exception.
