INGREDIENTS
1 cup canned chickpeas (drained)
160 grams firm tofu
75 grams red bell pepper
60 grams zucchini
40 grams red onion
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
2 garlic cloves
1 tbsp fresh parsley/basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Rinse and drain the chickpeas if using canned. Pat tofu dry and cut into cubes.
Chop the red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, toss the vegetables with half of the olive oil, a minced garlic clove, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a lined baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through until tender and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, in another bowl, marinate the tofu cubes with the remaining olive oil, juice of half a lemon, a minced garlic clove, and a pinch of salt. Optionally, add a sprinkle of dried herbs if desired.
Place the marinated tofu on a separate baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden and firm.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining lemon juice with chopped fresh parsley and basil to make your vibrant herb dressing.
Assemble your power bowl by layering the chickpeas, roasted vegetables, and baked tofu. Drizzle the herb dressing over the bowl and gently toss to combine.
Serve warm and enjoy your nutrient-packed, lemon-herb infused meal.
