INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup cooked lentils (~150g)
1/3 cup cooked chickpeas (~80g)
175g firm tofu
1 cup broccoli
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup vegetable broth
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cumin
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast on a baking sheet for about 15-20 minutes until edges are slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cumin, sautéing until fragrant for about 30 seconds.
Add the cooked lentils and chickpeas to the skillet. Stir gently to combine the spices with the legumes.
In a blender, combine the firm tofu, vegetable broth, lemon juice, and nutritional yeast. Blend until smooth to create a creamy sauce.
Pour the creamy tofu sauce over the lentil and chickpea mixture in the skillet, stirring to coat evenly. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
Gently fold in the roasted broccoli, mixing until everything is well incorporated.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, then serve warm.
