INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Chickpeas (164g)
200g Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (92g)
1 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables (160g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then pat them dry with a paper towel. Toss with a pinch of salt, pepper, and your favorite spices (such as paprika and garlic powder). Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
While the chickpeas roast, press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into cubes and marinate it with a splash of soy sauce, a dash of garlic powder, and a touch of olive oil. Arrange the tofu cubes on a separate baking sheet and bake in the oven for 20 minutes, turning halfway through.
Prepare your mixed vegetables by chopping broccoli, red bell pepper, and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. Toss them lightly with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking tray and roast in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Cook quinoa according to package instructions, usually simmering 1/2 cup quinoa in water until fluffy (approximately 15 minutes).
To assemble the Buddha bowl, create a base layer with the cooked quinoa, then add the roasted chickpeas, baked tofu, and roasted vegetables. Serve warm and enjoy this hearty, nutrient-packed bowl.
