INGREDIENTS
300g Extra Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Chickpeas (canned, drained)
1 cup chopped Broccoli
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Cornstarch
Seasonings: smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
In a bowl, toss the tofu cubes with cornstarch and a light sprinkle of salt, pepper, and smoked paprika until evenly coated.
Lay the tofu on a lined baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.
Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, combine chickpeas, chopped broccoli, and sliced red bell pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetable mixture on another baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until tender and slightly charred on the edges.
Assemble your Buddha bowl by layering the roasted vegetables and chickpeas, then topping with the crispy baked tofu.
Optionally, drizzle any remaining olive oil or a squeeze of lemon over the bowl for extra flavor. Serve warm.
