INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked quinoa (185 g)
2/3 cup cooked black beans (approx. 130 g)
130 g extra-firm tofu
1/4 avocado (50 g)
1/2 red bell pepper (45 g)
1/4 red onion (25 g)
1 tbsp pumpkin seeds (9 g)
1 lime wedge
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 tbsp fresh cilantro
PREPARATION
Prepare all ingredients by draining and rinsing the black beans, cooking the quinoa, and pressing the tofu for 10 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Cube the tofu and lightly toss with ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Optionally, let it marinate for 10 minutes.
In a non-stick pan over medium heat, lightly sauté the tofu cubes until they are golden on all sides. Remove and set aside.
Dice the red bell pepper and red onion. Roughly chop the avocado and fresh cilantro, and cut a wedge from the lime.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, sautéed tofu, red bell pepper, and red onion.
Squeeze the lime wedge over the mixture and gently fold in the diced avocado and pumpkin seeds.
Season with additional salt and pepper if needed, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve immediately.
