INGREDIENTS
0.5 cup roasted chickpeas (82g)
1 medium sweet potato (150g)
0.5 cup shelled edamame (75g)
4 ounces extra firm tofu (113g)
0.25 cup cooked quinoa (43g)
1 cup spinach (30g)
1 tsp tahini (5g)
1 tsp lemon juice (5g)
0.5 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp water
Pinch of salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and dice the sweet potato into bite-sized cubes. Rinse and pat dry the chickpeas if using canned, then toss them with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the sweet potato cubes and chickpeas evenly on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potato is tender and the chickpeas are crispy, stirring halfway through.
While the sweet potato and chickpeas roast, drain the tofu and cut it into cubes. Optionally, pat dry to remove excess moisture for better sautéing.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly sauté the tofu cubes until golden on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
If you are using shelled edamame that isn't pre-cooked, steam or boil them for 3-5 minutes until tender, then drain.
Prepare the creamy tahini dressing by whisking together the tahini, lemon juice, garlic powder, water, and a pinch of salt. Adjust the thickness by adding a bit more water if desired.
In a bowl, layer the spinach as the base. Add the cooked quinoa, then top with the roasted chickpeas, sweet potato cubes, sautéed tofu, and edamame.
Drizzle the creamy tahini dressing over the bowl and serve immediately.
