Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Drain and press the extra-firm tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Rinse and drain the chickpeas, and dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Chop the red bell pepper, zucchini, and carrots into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine broccoli, cauliflower, red bell pepper, zucchini, carrots, chickpeas, and tofu.
Add olive oil, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and nutritional yeast to the bowl. Toss everything together until the vegetables and tofu are evenly coated with oil and seasonings.
Spread the mixture in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
Remove the tray from the oven and let the roasted vegetables cool for a few minutes.
Serve warm, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
