INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked black beans
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
6 ounces firm tofu
1/2 medium red bell pepper
1/2 cup sliced zucchini
1/4 cup sliced red onion
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Prepare the veggies by cutting the red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into slices or bite-sized pieces. Toss them lightly with olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Spread the seasoned veggies on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
While the veggies are roasting, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cube the tofu and add it to the skillet. Sauté the tofu lightly until edges are golden, about 5-7 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa and black beans. Gently fold in the roasted veggies and sautéed tofu.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your hearty, smoky bowl!
