INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup roasted chickpeas (82g)
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (92g)
1 oz crumbled feta cheese (28g)
100g shelled edamame
50g grilled tempeh
2 tbsp fresh mixed herbs (parsley & mint)
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F if roasting chickpeas from raw. Toss drained chickpeas with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a small drizzle of olive oil, then roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy. Alternatively, use pre-roasted chickpeas.
While roasting chickpeas, prepare quinoa according to package directions and set aside once cooked.
If not pre-cooked, grill the tempeh slices with a light seasoning until browned on both sides, then chop into bite-size pieces.
Blanch or steam shelled edamame for a few minutes until tender but still retaining a bright green color.
In a large bowl, combine the roasted chickpeas, cooked quinoa, grilled tempeh, and edamame.
Gently fold in crumbled feta cheese and freshly chopped mixed herbs.
Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice, then toss everything lightly to combine all the flavors.
Serve immediately for the best texture, and enjoy your Mediterranean bowl packed with vibrant flavors and balanced nutrients.
