INGREDIENTS

12 oz Firm tofu

0.25 cup Nutritional yeast

0.5 tsp Garlic powder

0.5 tsp Onion powder

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

0.5 cup Cooked quinoa

1 cup Steamed broccoli

1 tbsp Tamari

PREPARATION

• 1

  Wrap the firm tofu in a clean kitchen towel and place a heavy object on top to press for 15 minutes, then slice into 1-inch cubes.

• 2

  In a shallow bowl, whisk together the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until well combined.

• 3

  Toss the pressed tofu cubes into the nutritional yeast mixture, pressing gently so the coating adheres to all sides of the tofu.

• 4

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

• 5

  Add the coated tofu cubes to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until each piece is golden brown and crispy.

• 6

  While the tofu cooks, warm the pre-cooked quinoa and steam the broccoli until tender-crisp.

• 7

  Assemble the bowl by placing the quinoa and steamed broccoli at the base, topping with the crusted tofu cubes.

• 8

  Drizzle the entire dish with tamari for a final boost of savory umami flavor.
