Description

A delicious Buddha bowl featuring crispy baked tofu coated in a creamy peanut sauce, served with quinoa, broccoli, carrots, and avocado.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 block of firm tofu
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup steamed broccoli
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (optional)
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into cubes.
  3. Mix the soy sauce and olive oil in a bowl. Add the tofu cubes and toss to coat.
  4. Spread the tofu on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  5. Whisk together peanut butter, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and sriracha to make the sauce in a separate bowl.
  6. Assemble the bowl by adding quinoa, cooked tofu, broccoli, carrots, and avocado.
  7. Drizzle with peanut sauce and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
  8. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Best eaten fresh the same day; avocado softens if it sits. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
