INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup cooked quinoa (approx 140g)
1 cup crispy chickpeas (approx 164g)
3 oz extra-firm tofu (approx 85g)
1/2 cup shelled edamame (approx 75g)
1 cup mixed roasted vegetables (approx 150g)
2 tsp mixed herbs and seasonings
2 tsp olive oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, toss the chickpeas and mixed vegetables with olive oil, herbs, salt, and pepper.
Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 25-30 minutes until crispy. Roast the vegetables on a separate sheet or alongside the chickpeas if space allows, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
While the chickpeas and vegetables are roasting, gently press the tofu to remove excess moisture and cut into cubes. Sauté the tofu in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a pinch of salt until lightly golden on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
Prepare the quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked. Use about 3/4 cup cooked quinoa for the bowl.
For assembly, place the cooked quinoa in a bowl. Top with roasted vegetables, crispy chickpeas, and sautéed tofu. Add the shelled edamame last for a pop of color and texture.
Finish with an extra drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of additional herbs or pepper if desired before serving.
