Instructions

  • Add quinoa, ginger, 1 teaspoon tamari, water, and 1 cup of almond milk coconut milk blend into a small saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil, cover, and reduce to simmer for 15 minutes. Once the liquid has been absorbed, set aside until ready to serve.
  • While the quinoa is cooking, preheat the oven to 400ºF. Grease a baking sheet and set it aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, remaining 1/4 cup of almond milk coconut milk blend, remaining 2 teaspoons of tamari, lime juice, and hot sauce. Continue to whisk until smooth and pourable (add a splash of more almond milk as needed).
  • Add tofu to a mixing bowl and toss with half of the peanut dressing. Transfer the tofu to the greased baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes until crispy, flipping halfway through.
  • Once the tofu is done, assemble your bowls. Divide the quinoa, tofu, cabbage, carrots, and scallions evenly among 4 bowls. Drizzle each with the remaining dressing and sprinkle with cilantro and sesame seeds. Enjoy immediately!
