Wash and dry all produce. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring a #medium pot{} of generously salted @water{} to a boil. Peel @carrots{6%unit} and halve lengthwise, then slice crosswise into ½-inch-thick pieces. Halve, core, and seed @bell pepper{2%unit}, then cut into ½-inch-wide strips. Halve, peel, and thinly slice @shallot{2%unit}. Chop @parsley{½%oz}. Zest @lemon{2%unit}, then halve; squeeze juice into a small bowl.

Toss bell pepper and carrots on a #baking sheet{} with a drizzle of @olive oil{16%tsp}, a pinch of @salt{} and @pepper{}, and 1 to 2 tsp of @harissa powder{4%tsp}, depending on how much spice you like. Roast in oven until tender, about ~{20%minutes}.

Once water is boiling, add @freekeh{1%cup} to pot. Boil until tender, ~{25%minutes}. Drain and return freekeh to pot.

Place shallot in another #small bowl{} with 1%tbsp lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of @sugar{¼%tsp}. Toss to coat. Set aside to marinate. Place @pistachios{2%oz}, a drizzle of olive oil, and half the @za'atar spice{2%tsp} in a #small pan{}. Place pan over medium-high heat and toast pistachios, tossing frequently, until aromatic and a warm golden-brown shade, about ~{5%minutes}.

Mix lemon zest, a large pinch of salt, and 2%tbsp olive oil with remaining lemon juice in bowl. In another small bowl, stir together @yogurt{8%oz} and @feta cheese{1%cup} and remaining za'atar. Stir in water 1 tsp at a time until mixture has a consistency that's thick and creamy but not stiff.

Pour lemon dressing over freekeh in pot and stir to coat. Divide between plates, then arrange veggies on top. Dollop with feta sauce. Garnish with shallot, pistachios, and parsley.
