Crispy Tofu Peanut Bowls
Shatter-crisp tofu, peanut-lime sauce, 100% plant-based. 41g protein.
Torn tofu tossed in soy and cornstarch roasts into craggy, golden, properly crunchy pieces, and it shares the sheet pan with charred broccoli. Over nutty brown rice with edamame and crunchy raw vegetables, all drenched in a thick peanut-lime sauce, it's a vegan bowl that doesn't feel like a compromise. Powdered peanut butter builds most of the sauce, so it's deeply peanutty and still loaded with protein.
