INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Lentils (198g)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (92g)
1 cup Roasted Root Vegetables (150g)
1/4 cup Chickpeas (43g)
70g Extra-Firm Tofu
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Mint)
Salt and Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss chopped root vegetables (such as carrots, parsnips, and beets) lightly in olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast them on a baking sheet for 20-25 minutes until tender.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, chopped fresh herbs, salt, and pepper to create a zesty dressing.
Prepare the cooked lentils, quinoa, and chickpeas if not already done. Gently warm them if desired.
Cube the extra-firm tofu and lightly season with salt and pepper. Optionally, you can quickly pan-sear the tofu to add texture.
Assemble the bowl by layering the lentils, quinoa, roasted vegetables, chickpeas, and tofu. Drizzle the lemon-herb dressing over the top.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired and serve warm.
