INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup dry TVP (approx 40g dry)
1/4 cup cooked lentils (approx 50g)
1/4 cup cooked quinoa (approx 43g)
1 cup roasted broccoli (approx 91g)
1 tsp olive oil
Salt, pepper, smoked paprika to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a pinch of smoked paprika. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet and roast for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, rehydrate the TVP by mixing 1/2 cup dry TVP with hot water (or vegetable broth) in a bowl. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until fully hydrated, then drain any excess liquid. Spread the TVP on a lined baking sheet, lightly spray with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes to achieve a crispy texture.
If desired, for extra crispiness, mix the cooked lentils with a tiny drizzle of olive oil, season with salt and paprika, and place them in the oven for the last 10 minutes of the broccoli’s roasting time.
Assemble your bowl by layering the cooked quinoa at the base, then adding the roasted broccoli, crispy TVP, and baked lentils on top.
Finish with an additional light sprinkle of smoked paprika or your favorite seasoning, and serve warm.
