INGREDIENTS
300g Extra Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Chickpeas (canned, low sodium)
1 cup Broccoli florets
1 cup Red Bell Pepper, sliced
1 medium Carrot, sliced
2 teaspoons Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Sesame Seeds
1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger (grated)
1 clove Garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon Rice Vinegar
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, gently toss the tofu cubes with 1 teaspoon olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a portion of grated ginger.
Place the tofu on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway to achieve a crispy exterior.
Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, combine broccoli florets, red bell pepper slices, and carrot slices. Drizzle with the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil.
Add minced garlic, remaining grated ginger, low sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, and toss to evenly coat the vegetables.
Spread the vegetables on another parchment-lined baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
In the final 5 minutes of roasting, add the chickpeas to the vegetable tray to warm through.
Once both tofu and vegetables are done, remove them from the oven. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the tofu and gently combine with the roasted vegetables.
Serve warm and enjoy this balanced, nutrient-packed meal.
