INGREDIENTS
250g Extra Firm Tofu
50g Chickpeas
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa
50g Broccoli
50g Red Bell Pepper
50g Carrot
1 tbsp Tahini
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for 15-20 minutes to remove excess moisture. Once pressed, cut it into cubes.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a baking sheet, toss broccoli, red bell pepper, and carrot with 1 tsp olive oil, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Roast for 20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the vegetables roast, season the tofu cubes with a pinch of salt and additional smoked paprika if desired. Optionally, you may lightly coat them in cornstarch for extra crispiness.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the tofu cubes until all sides are golden brown and crisp, about 8-10 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together tahini and lemon juice with a splash of water to achieve a drizzling consistency.
Assemble the bowl by layering cooked quinoa at the base, then adding the roasted vegetables, crispy tofu cubes, and chickpeas.
Drizzle the tahini dressing evenly over the bowl, and serve warm.
