Crispy Chickpea Buddha Bowl with Tahini Sauce
A colorful, nutrient-dense bowl featuring crispy roasted chickpeas, lightly sautéed tofu, and a bed of quinoa and fresh veggies, all drizzled with a tangy tahini sauce. This bowl blends warm textures with cool, crisp greens for a wholesome, satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup cooked chickpeas
3 oz firm tofu, cubed
1/3 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 cup shelled edamame
1 cup baby spinach
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/4 avocado, sliced
1/2 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp olive oil
Salt & Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the chickpeas with a drizzle of olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
While the chickpeas roast, press the tofu lightly to remove excess moisture and cut it into cubes. Sauté the tofu in a non-stick pan with a dash of olive oil over medium heat until the edges are golden, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions and measure out 1/3 cup once cooked.
Lightly steam or sauté the edamame for a couple of minutes until warmed through.
In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, a splash of water to thin, and a pinch of salt to create the sauce.
Assemble the bowl by layering spinach, quinoa, roasted chickpeas, tofu, edamame, shredded carrots, and avocado slices.
Drizzle the tahini dressing over the bowl, toss gently, and serve immediately.
