Lentil and Vegetable Power Bowl
Pan-seared tofu and protein-packed lentils tossed with steamed broccoli and wilted spinach in a creamy, zesty tahini dressing for a vibrant and earthy finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz extra firm tofu
1 cup cooked green lentils
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
0 tbsp pumpkin seeds
1 cup broccoli florets
2 cups fresh baby spinach
0 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0 tsp tahini
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Press the extra firm tofu with a heavy object for 10 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut into bite-sized cubes.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the tofu cubes until they are golden and crisp on all sides.
While the tofu is searing, season it evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and nutritional yeast.
Steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water for 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet with the tofu during the last minute of cooking, stirring until just wilted.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the tahini and lemon juice with a teaspoon of warm water until the dressing is smooth and pourable.
Assemble the power bowl by placing the cooked green lentils at the base and topping them with the sautéed spinach, steamed broccoli, and crispy tofu.
Drizzle the zesty tahini dressing over the entire bowl and garnish with the pumpkin seeds for added crunch.
