INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup Canned Chickpeas (~130g)
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa (~93g)
200g Mixed Roasted Vegetables
125g Extra-Firm Tofu
1 tablespoon Tahini (~14g)
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice (~15g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (~4.5g)
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a bowl, toss the chickpeas with a drizzle of olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
While the chickpeas roast, prepare the vegetables. Chop broccoli, red bell pepper, and zucchini into bite-sized pieces, toss with a small amount of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast them in the oven for about 20 minutes until tender and lightly charred.
Press the extra-firm tofu and cut into cubes. Optionally, you can season the tofu lightly with salt and toss with a bit of olive oil. Roast the tofu during the last 15 minutes of vegetable roasting.
Prepare the quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked.
For the creamy tahini dressing, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, a tiny splash of water (if needed) to achieve a smooth consistency, and a pinch of salt.
Assemble your power bowl by layering quinoa at the base, then adding the roasted vegetables, crispy chickpeas, and seasoned tofu. Drizzle the tahini dressing over the top.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, nutritious power bowl.
