INGREDIENTS
1 cup canned no-salt-added Chickpeas (164g)
3/4 cup firm Tofu (113g)
1 cup mixed vegetables (broccoli, bell pepper, zucchini, 150g)
1 cup baby Spinach (30g)
1.5 tbsp Tahini (22.5g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Cut the firm tofu into bite-sized cubes.
In a bowl, toss the chickpeas and tofu with a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder to coat lightly.
Spread the chickpeas and tofu on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until crisp, stirring halfway through for even crisping.
While the chickpeas and tofu are roasting, chop the mixed vegetables into uniform pieces. Toss them in a small amount of water or cooking spray, season lightly, and add to another baking sheet if you prefer them more roasted, or keep them raw for crunch.
For the tahini dressing, combine tahini, lemon juice, a splash of water, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Adjust water to reach a pourable consistency.
Assemble your Buddha bowl by layering a base of baby spinach, then adding the roasted mixed vegetables. Top with the crispy chickpeas and tofu.
Drizzle the creamy tahini dressing over the bowl and serve immediately.
