BBQ Quinoa Tofu Bowls

Tweet

I thought it would be fun / a nice distraction to document some different recipes I have been trying while "social distancing". Just kidding, I always like to post them, and I always like to try new recipes. I TOTALLY took a break from using quinoa after getting burnt out from it, but I gave it a try since I had some tofu sitting around and wanted something quasi-healthy but still hearty. What I came up with was: barbeque tofu quinoa bowls. In it, I roasted sweet potatoes and tofu in a korean barbeque sauce, fried broccoli and onions, and put them all over quinoa with a drizzle of regular barbeque sauce. Then topped with green onions. I forgot HOW MUCH I LOVE barbeque sauce! Being a vegetarian, I don't find myself eating it very often at all. I am definitely going to try to incorporate it more in other foods. Maybe I will scramble up some eggs and season it with barbeque sauce. Who knows? This was not a terribly expensive meal, I fed three people with it and got 2 lunches out of it also. Next time, I might just bake/roast ALL the ingredients to save on dishes. The tofu was still soft and not crispy (I have never managed to make that perfect crispy on-the-outside-soft-on-the-inside tofu, YET). It was good, and I would suggest it if you are looking for something almost entirely vegan, but still hearty and delicious. Have you been trying any new recipes lately, and if so, what was your recent favorite? Or, tell me about your latest TOFU or QUINOA recipe! Hope everyone is doing well!
