Savor a vibrant bowl featuring tender cauliflower rice tossed in garlic and fresh herbs, topped with crispy roasted chickpeas and hearty chunks of firm tofu. This dish delivers an enticing blend of textures and flavors, with a light hint of lemon balancing the aromatic garlic and herb notes.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups Cauliflower Rice
1 cup Chickpeas (drained)
150 grams Firm Tofu
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Cilantro)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then pat them dry with a clean towel.
Toss the chickpeas with a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and a minced garlic clove. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes or until crispy.
While the chickpeas roast, cut the tofu into small cubes. In a non-stick pan, heat a bit of olive oil over medium heat and sauté the tofu cubes for about 5-7 minutes until they are lightly golden on all sides. Season with a little salt and pepper.
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, sautéed tofu, remaining minced garlic, lemon juice, and fresh chopped herbs. Toss well to blend the flavors.
Once the chickpeas are roasted to crisp perfection, gently fold them into the bowl.
Adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, protein-packed bowl.
