INGREDIENTS
250g Extra Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Shelled Edamame (75g)
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice (100g)
1/2 cup Diced Red Bell Pepper (75g)
1/2 cup Shredded Carrot (55g)
1 cup Baby Spinach (30g)
1 tbsp Tahini (15g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Press the tofu for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut it into bite-sized cubes.
In a bowl, toss the tofu cubes with a pinch of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Arrange them on a lined baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until the tofu is crispy on the edges.
While the tofu bakes, prepare the other components. If not already cooked, cook the brown rice according to package directions. Steam or blanch the edamame if needed.
In a small bowl, mix the tahini, lemon juice, a splash of water, and a pinch of salt to create a smooth, drizzly sauce. Adjust consistency with more water if necessary.
Assemble the bowl by placing a base of brown rice, then layering the baked tofu, edamame, diced red bell pepper, shredded carrot, and baby spinach.
Drizzle the tahini sauce evenly over the bowl and serve immediately.
