Description

A nourishing rice bowl featuring oven-baked miso tofu, roasted vegetables, and fluffy rice, packed with protein and fiber.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Brown or Jasmine Rice
  • 14 oz Firm Tofu
  • 3 tablespoons Miso Paste
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
  • 2 cups Seasonal Vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, snap peas, carrots)
  • Green Onions (for garnish)
  • Sesame Seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) while your rice cooks according to package instructions.
  2. Press the tofu between paper towels to draw out excess moisture.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the miso paste, soy sauce, maple syrup, and sesame oil to create a marinade.
  4. Cut the pressed tofu into cubes and toss them in the marinade until well-coated.
  5. Arrange the tofu on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  6. While the tofu is baking, chop your vegetables and stir-fry them in a little olive oil or steam until tender (about 5-7 minutes).
  7. Serve your rice topped with the baked tofu and sautéed veggies. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if using.

Notes

Press tofu longer for the best texture. Experiment with different varieties of miso for unique flavors.
