Silky Braised Summer Vegetables
A luscious, vibrant stew of summer vegetables braised to silky perfection with firm tofu, a touch of chickpeas, and a boost of savory nutritional yeast. The medley of zucchini, yellow squash, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, and red onion melds beautifully with garlic and herbs, finished with a light drizzle of olive oil for a dish that's both heartwarming and nutritionally balanced.
INGREDIENTS
300g Firm Tofu
50g Chickpeas (canned, drained)
1 medium Zucchini
1 medium Yellow Squash
100g Cherry Tomatoes
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
50g Red Onion
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
3 cloves Garlic
10g Nutritional Yeast
Salt & Pepper to taste
Mixed Herbs to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu to remove excess water and cut into bite-sized cubes.
Rinse the chickpeas if using canned; set aside.
Dice the zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and red onion. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add the red onion and bell pepper, cooking until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
Stir in the zucchini, yellow squash, and cherry tomatoes. Continue to sauté for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables start to become tender.
Gently add the tofu and chickpeas to the pan. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and mixed herbs.
Lower the heat, cover, and let the mixture braise for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until all the vegetables are soft and the tofu has absorbed the flavors.
Sprinkle the nutritional yeast over the dish, stir gently, and allow it to meld for an additional minute.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed before serving.
