 Buddha Bowl with Peanut Tofu and Tahini Turmeric Dressing
The tofu in this dish is marinated in a peanut sauce and then baked - which makes it really delicious. The buddha bowl is then made up of steamed broccoli, roasted sweet potatoes, spinach, red cabbage, avocado, and roasted red peppers - but you can add whatever veg is to hand or your favourite vegetables. I've then added a tahini and turmeric dressing which is full of flavour and also protein.
