INGREDIENTS
1 cup Chickpeas
4 ounces Extra-Firm Tofu
1/4 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables
1/2 cup Fresh Mixed Berries
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 serving Lemon-Herb Vinaigrette
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then gently pat them dry with a paper towel.
Toss the chickpeas and chopped mixed vegetables (such as zucchini, red bell pepper, and eggplant) with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and your favorite herbs.
Spread the chickpeas and vegetables evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until they are crispy and lightly caramelized.
While the vegetables roast, press the extra-firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into cubes and lightly sauté in a non-stick pan over medium heat until golden on all sides.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked. Measure out 1/4 cup once done.
In a small bowl, whisk together fresh lemon juice, a tiny splash of olive oil, chopped herbs, and a pinch of salt to create the bright lemon-herb vinaigrette.
Assemble the bowl by layering the roasted chickpeas and vegetables, sautéed tofu, cooked quinoa, and fresh mixed berries.
Sprinkle nutritional yeast over the bowl for a savory boost, then drizzle the lemon-herb vinaigrette over the top. Toss gently if desired and serve warm.
