INGREDIENTS
300g Extra Firm Tofu
1/2 cup rinsed Chickpeas
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 medium Mixed Bell Pepper
1 medium Zucchini
1 cup raw Spinach
1 tbsp Toasted Sesame Seeds
1 tbsp Soy Sauce
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into 1-inch cubes. Toss tofu cubes gently with soy sauce to lightly coat.
Spread the tofu evenly on the baking sheet and bake for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the tofu becomes golden and crispy.
While the tofu bakes, chop the bell pepper and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. Toss them in a lightly oiled pan or on a separate baking sheet (if desired, a light spray of oil can be used) and roast in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
In a bowl, assemble the Buddha Bowl by layering the quinoa as the base, adding roasted tofu, chickpeas, the roasted vegetables, and a fresh bed of spinach on top.
Finish with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Serve warm and enjoy your nutrient-packed, flavorful bowl.
