INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Chickpeas (164g)
175g Firm Tofu
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper (75g)
1/2 medium Zucchini (100g)
1/4 medium Red Onion (40g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1/2 tbsp Tahini (7.5g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice (15g)
Pinch Garlic Powder
Pinch Ground Cumin
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse and drain the cooked chickpeas. Pat dry with a paper towel.
Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes and toss gently with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Slice the red bell pepper into strips, cut the zucchini into rounds or half-moons, and slice the red onion thinly.
In a bowl, toss the vegetables with olive oil, garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables roast, lightly sauté the tofu cubes in a non-stick pan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until golden on all sides, or simply add them to the roasting sheet for the last 10 minutes if preferred.
Prepare the dressing by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, a small splash of water to thin if necessary, and a pinch of salt. Adjust seasonings to taste.
Assemble the bowl by placing the cooked chickpeas as the base, topping with roasted vegetables and tofu.
Drizzle the lemon-tahini dressing over the bowl and serve warm.
