INGREDIENTS
240g Extra Firm Tofu
0.5 cup cooked Chickpeas
0.33 cup cooked Quinoa
0.5 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
Mixed Greens and Cherry Tomatoes (1 serving, ~80g)
0.5 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu to remove excess water, then cut into cubes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a non-stick pan, heat 0.5 teaspoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until all sides are golden and crispy, about 6-8 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked chickpeas, cooked quinoa, and mixed greens with cherry tomatoes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper to make a light dressing.
Add the crispy tofu to the salad bowl, drizzle the dressing over the mixture, and toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy your protein-packed, fresh lunch.
