INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (92g)
3/4 cup black beans (195g)
100g firm tofu
1/2 cup shelled edamame (78g)
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper (75g)
1/8 medium avocado (25g)
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
Seasonings: salt, cumin, black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa under cold water and cook according to package instructions until fluffy.
Drain and rinse the black beans if using canned, then set aside.
Press the tofu briefly to remove excess water and cut it into small cubes.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Lightly sauté the tofu cubes with a pinch of salt, cumin, and black pepper until they begin to crisp on the edges, about 5-7 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, sautéed tofu, and shelled edamame.
Add the chopped red bell pepper and gently toss the mixture.
Drizzle the fresh lime juice over the bowl and add the chopped cilantro. If using avocado, gently fold in the diced avocado last to avoid mashing.
Season with additional salt, cumin, and pepper as desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant, citrus-infused flavors.
