INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup Chickpeas (approx 123g)
0.5 cup cooked Quinoa (approx 93g)
225g Firm Tofu
50g Red Bell Pepper
50g Red Onion
1 cup Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
In a bowl, toss the chickpeas, diced red bell pepper, diced red onion, and spinach with olive oil, lemon juice, mixed fresh herbs, salt, and pepper.
Spread the chickpea and vegetable mixture evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway, until the chickpeas are lightly crisp and vegetables are tender.
While the vegetables roast, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions until fluffy.
Cut the firm tofu into 1-inch cubes. Lightly season with salt, pepper, and a splash of lemon juice if desired. In a separate pan, lightly sauté the tofu cubes over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until golden on all sides.
To assemble, spoon a bed of fluffy quinoa into a bowl, then top with the roasted chickpeas and vegetables and the golden tofu cubes.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs or a drizzle of lemon juice and serve warm.
