INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup Chickpeas (82g)
1/2 cup Cooked Lentils (100g)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (93g)
5 ounces Extra Firm Tofu (140g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice (30g)
1 clove Garlic (3g)
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (4g)
1 tsp Fresh Thyme (1g)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, toss the chickpeas with half the olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a sprinkle of fresh thyme. Spread them on the baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
While the chickpeas roast, press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut into cubes. In a separate pan, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat, add the tofu cubes, and sauté until golden on all sides. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked lentils and quinoa. Add minced garlic, fresh parsley, and pour in the lemon juice. Mix well to combine the flavors.
Once the chickpeas are roasted, gently fold them into the quinoa mixture along with the crispy tofu cubes.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as desired. Serve warm and enjoy this protein-packed, flavorful bowl.
