INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked Lentils (100g)
1/2 cup cooked Chickpeas (82g)
125g Firm Tofu
1 small Roasted Sweet Potato (114g)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
1 tablespoon Tahini (15g)
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice (15g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
1 teaspoon Ground Cumin (2.3g)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and dice the sweet potato into cubes. Toss them with olive oil and ground cumin, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Spread the sweet potato cubes on a baking sheet and roast for about 20-25 minutes or until tender and lightly crisped around the edges.
While the sweet potatoes roast, press the tofu gently with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, then cut into cubes.
In a skillet over medium heat, lightly sauté the tofu cubes until golden on all sides. Optionally, season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, combine the cooked lentils, chickpeas, sautéed tofu, and fresh spinach.
Prepare the tahini lemon dressing by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, and a splash of water until smooth. Adjust seasoning if needed.
Once the roasted sweet potatoes are ready, add them to the bowl, and drizzle over the tahini dressing.
Toss all the ingredients gently to combine and serve immediately, enjoying the warm, hearty flavors.
