Instructions
 

Prepare the Tofu:

  • Drain and pat dry the tofu. Cut it into cubes and place in a shallow dish.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the tamari, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Pour the marinade over the tofu, tossing gently to coat.
  • Allow the tofu to soak in the marinade for a minimum of 15 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  • Spread the tofu cubes on the baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Roast the Sweet Potatoes:

  • Place the sweet potato rounds on a separate baking sheet, drizzle with a little oil, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast alongside the tofu for 25-30 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized.

Prepare the Miso Tahini Sauce:

  • In a blender or food processor, combine the miso paste, rice vinegar, maple syrup, tahini, tamari, ginger, garlic, turmeric, water, and oil.
  • Blend until smooth and creamy.

Assemble the Power Bowls:

  • Divide the cooked brown rice or quinoa into bowls.
  • Layer on the mixed greens, roasted sweet potatoes, cooked edamame, chopped cucumber, radishes, and marinated tofu.
  • Top each bowl with goji berries or cranberries, toasted sunflower seeds, and optional sunflower or pea sprouts.
