Crispy Roasted Chickpea Buddha Bowl
Enjoy a vibrant bowl loaded with crispy roasted chickpeas, fluffy quinoa, golden tofu, fresh greens, and a hint of creamy avocado. A drizzle of light tahini dressing ties all the flavors together in this balanced and colorful meal.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup roasted Chickpeas (82g)
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (93g)
1/4 medium Avocado (50g)
1 cup raw Spinach (30g)
1/2 cup halved Grape Tomatoes (75g)
1/2 cup sliced Cucumber (52g)
1/2 tbsp Tahini (7.5g)
200g Firm Tofu
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Drain and rinse chickpeas, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Toss the chickpeas with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, and your favorite spices (like paprika or cumin). Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer for even roasting.
Roast the chickpeas in the oven for about 25-30 minutes or until they are crispy, shaking the pan halfway through.
While the chickpeas roast, prepare the quinoa by rinsing it under cold water and cooking according to the package instructions.
Cut the tofu into cubes and, if desired, lightly sauté them in a non-stick pan with minimal oil for extra texture.
In a large bowl, assemble the Buddha bowl by adding the cooked quinoa as the base, then top with spinach, grape tomatoes, cucumber slices, avocado chunks, roasted chickpeas, and tofu.
Drizzle the bowl with tahini and a squeeze of lemon if you like a zingy finish.
Mix gently to combine all flavors and enjoy your healthy, protein-packed Buddha bowl.
