Whipped Tofu Bowls with Roasted Vegetables and Chili Crisp Chickpeas

March 17, 2023 By Lisa Kitahara 4 Comments

Jump to Recipe

Whipped tofu bowls with roasted veggies & chili crisp(y) chickpeas.

A rendition to all the hummus, cheese and various dip bowls that have been floating around on my explore lately.

The whipped tofu has a cheesy flavour with a fluffy texture so it’s not too dense and heavy— so it’s a lighter, yet satisfying meal that’s perfect for transition season covering the basics: protein from the tofu, carbs from the chickpeas (+ bread), fats from the oil and veggies 🫡.

Secret to crispy chickpeas that actually stay crunchy: potato starch!! Just like with tofu, if you coat it in potato starch first they get that store-bought crispness. You can also air fry or bake them, but they don’t stay as crunchy for long which is fine if you’re eating it asap.

    Hi!

    The tofu says 225 block. Is that 225g? Is this all for one serving?

    Thank you!
