Kale salad with roasted chickpeas and baked sweet potatoes

The crispy, spiced chickpeas are pan-roasted with various herbs, adding tons of flavor, substance, and satiety to the salad. The cucumbers and sweet potatoes contribute freshness and sweetness, respectively. On top, I have creamy feta and crunchy pumpkin seeds.
