INGREDIENTS
250g Extra-Firm Tofu
100g Chickpeas (cooked)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper (150g)
1 medium Zucchini (196g)
1 cup Broccoli (91g)
1 tbsp Olive Oil
Seasonings: Garlic Powder, Salt, Black Pepper
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture. Then, cut it into bite-sized cubes.
Preheat your oven to 400°F. On a baking sheet, toss the tofu cubes with half the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Cut the red bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli into similar sized pieces. In a separate bowl, toss the vegetables with the remaining olive oil, salt, pepper, and a dash of garlic powder.
Spread the seasoned tofu and vegetables on separate baking sheets, ensuring even distribution for optimal crisping and roasting.
Bake the tofu for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through to achieve a crispy exterior. Roast the vegetables for around 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly charred on the edges.
Meanwhile, if using canned chickpeas, drain and rinse them. For extra crunch, you can briefly roast the chickpeas with a pinch of salt and pepper for 10 minutes in the oven.
Assemble your Buddha Bowl by layering roasted tofu, chickpeas, and vegetables. Drizzle the lemon juice over the top for a bright finish.
Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious and protein-packed meal.
