INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup Canned Chickpeas (123g)
1/2 medium Avocado (100g)
2 cups Spinach (60g)
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes (75g)
0.25 cup Cooked Quinoa (43g)
0.33 cup Shelled Edamame (55g)
50g Firm Tofu
1 tbsp Lemon-Tahini Dressing (15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Rinse and drain the canned chickpeas, then pat them dry with a paper towel. Spread them on a baking sheet, drizzle lightly with a touch of olive oil (optional), and season with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. Roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
While the chickpeas roast, prepare the dressing by mixing tahini with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a small amount of water to achieve a smooth, pourable consistency.
Cube the firm tofu into bite-sized pieces. If desired, you can lightly pan-sear the tofu in a non-stick skillet to add a bit of crispness, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
In a large bowl, combine the spinach and halved cherry tomatoes. Add in the cooked quinoa, shelled edamame, and gently toss.
Slice the avocado and add it to the salad. Once the chickpeas are roasted and the tofu is prepared, add them to the bowl.
Drizzle the lemon-tahini dressing over the salad and toss gently until well mixed.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nutrient-packed, protein-rich salad bowl.
