INGREDIENTS
1 cup Chickpeas (cooked)
150 grams Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper, chopped
1/2 cup Zucchini, sliced
1/4 small Red Onion, sliced
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet, drizzle with half a teaspoon of olive oil, sprinkle with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, then toss to coat evenly.
Roast the chickpeas in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until they become crispy.
While the chickpeas are roasting, press the tofu to remove excess moisture and cut it into cubes. Season lightly with salt, pepper, and a pinch of smoked paprika.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and sauté until they are golden brown on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.
In a separate bowl, combine the chopped red bell pepper, sliced zucchini, and red onion. Drizzle with lemon juice, add minced garlic, and toss lightly.
To assemble the bowl, start with a base of cooked quinoa, then layer on the roasted chickpeas, sautéed tofu, and mixed vegetables.
Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice and adjust salt and pepper to taste before serving.
