Herb-Roasted Vegetable Ratatouille
Savor a vibrant medley of roasted eggplant, zucchini, red bell pepper, tomato, and onion, elevated by the heartiness of chickpeas and firm tofu. This colorful dish is finished with garlic and a hint of thyme and basil for a perfect balance of rustic comfort and fresh, herbaceous flavor.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup diced eggplant
1 medium zucchini, sliced
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup chopped tomato
1/2 medium yellow onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup cooked chickpeas
250g firm tofu
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
Fresh thyme and basil (to taste)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
On a large baking tray, combine diced eggplant, sliced zucchini, chopped red bell pepper, chopped tomato, and sliced onion.
Add minced garlic, a drizzle of olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, thyme, and basil. Toss the vegetables until evenly coated.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
While the vegetables roast, press and cube the tofu. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, lightly sear the tofu cubes until golden on all sides.
Once the vegetables are tender and slightly charred at the edges, remove them from the oven. Gently fold in the roasted vegetables with the sautéed tofu and cooked chickpeas.
Allow the flavors to meld together for a few minutes over low heat on the stovetop, then serve warm. Enjoy your wholesome and protein-balanced ratatouille!
