INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup roasted chickpeas (82g)
100g firm tofu
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (93g)
1 cup fresh spinach (30g)
1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes (75g)
1/2 cup shelled edamame (75g)
1 tbsp tahini (15g)
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (15g)
1 tsp olive oil (5g)
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then pat them dry with a paper towel. Toss them with a teaspoon of olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Spread the seasoned chickpeas on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes until crispy, shaking the pan halfway through.
While the chickpeas roast, press the tofu gently to remove excess moisture. Cube the tofu and, if you prefer, lightly pan-sear it with a dash of salt until golden.
Cook quinoa according to package instructions and fluff with a fork.
In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, fresh lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a splash of water to achieve a creamy sauce consistency.
Assemble your bowl by layering fresh spinach as a base, then add cooked quinoa, roasted chickpeas, tofu cubes, halved cherry tomatoes, and shelled edamame.
Drizzle the tahini sauce evenly over the bowl, and finish with an extra sprinkle of salt and pepper if desired.
Enjoy your nutrient-packed, crispy roasted chickpea Buddha bowl!
