INGREDIENTS
200 grams Extra-Firm Tofu
1 cup Cooked Lentils (approx. 200 grams)
8 grams Pumpkin Seeds
150 grams Roasted Vegetables Mix
PREPARATION
Press the tofu between paper towels for about 15-20 minutes to remove excess moisture. Once drained, cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the mixed vegetables (bell pepper, zucchini, red onion) with a light drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly coat the tofu cubes with a sprinkle of cornstarch, salt, and pepper for extra crispiness, then sauté them until golden on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the crispy tofu, cooked lentils, roasted vegetables, and pumpkin seeds. Toss gently to mix the textures and flavors.
Serve immediately for a warm salad that packs a protein punch perfect for a satisfying lunch.
