INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (111g)
1 cup roasted chickpeas (164g)
1 oz feta cheese (28g)
125g firm tofu
1 cup fresh spinach
0.5 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp mixed fresh herbs (parsley & mint)
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Rinse and drain a cup of chickpeas, then toss with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a tiny drizzle of olive oil. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy, stirring halfway through.
While the chickpeas roast, prepare the quinoa according to package directions if not already cooked.
Press the tofu gently to remove excess water, then cut it into cubes. Sauté the tofu in a nonstick pan over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until lightly browned on all sides. Season with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil (use the reserved half teaspoon or adjust if needed), chopped fresh herbs, salt, and pepper to create a vibrant dressing.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, roasted chickpeas, sautéed tofu, and fresh spinach. Crumble the feta cheese over the top.
Drizzle the herb-lemon dressing over the bowl and gently toss everything together so that the flavors meld.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nutrient-packed, tangy, and herb-infused quinoa bowl.
