INGREDIENTS
200g Cauliflower
1 cup Chickpeas (roasted)
1 cup Silken Tofu
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Toss them with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until they are crispy, shaking the pan halfway through.
While the chickpeas are roasting, steam or boil the cauliflower until tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a blender, combine the silken tofu, nutritional yeast, a pinch of salt and pepper, and a splash of water if necessary. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Place the cooked cauliflower in an ovenproof dish. Pour the tofu sauce over the cauliflower and gently mix to coat evenly.
Top the sauced cauliflower with the crispy roasted chickpeas.
Bake the assembled dish in the oven for an additional 10 minutes to meld the flavors.
Remove from the oven, give a final mix if desired, and serve warm.
