Sizzling Fiesta Bowl with BBQ Tofu

Hey, foodie adventurer! Ready to shake up your diet and dance your way to those fat loss goals? We’ve got a party on your plate with our Fiesta Bowl, and we promise it’s not your average burrito bowl—it’s a fiesta of flavors, fun, and fitness!

Ingredients for 12 servings (because we believe in leftovers and fiestas that never end):

• 1 (14oz) extra firm tofu, pressed and sliced
• ¼ cup BBQ sauce (because life is better with a saucy twist!)
• 2 cups red quinoa, cooked (because we’re fancy, and white quinoa is so last season)
• 1 (15oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed (let’s drain those beans and say goodbye to any bad vibes)
• 1 small red bell pepper, seeded and diced (add some color, it’s a fiesta!)
• ½ cup canned corn (corny jokes aside, it’s a-maize-ing)
• ¼ cup goat cheese, crumbled (because we’re feeling a little “baa”-dass)
• 2 Tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (cilantro: the confetti of the herb world)
• 1 teaspoon olive oil (for that Mediterranean flair)
• 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice (a squeeze of zesty happiness)
• Sea salt and black pepper to taste (because balance is key, even in a fiesta)

Instructions: Let’s get this Fiesta started!

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a casserole pan with olive oil. Place the tofu slices in a single layer in the pan and let them bake for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Then, cover those tofu slices in the BBQ sauce, giving each one a saucy makeover. Bake for an additional 15 minutes. Set the saucy stars aside.
2. Now, in a big bowl, throw a party by combining all the other ingredients. Top it all off with those sassy BBQ tofu slices. Let the flavor fiesta commence!

Nutrition: Because we believe in counting the fun stuff!

One serving equals: 266 calories (that’s a dance workout right there!), 4g fat (the good kind), 67mg sodium (just a sprinkle of sass), 38g carbohydrate (because we need energy for the fiesta), 8g fiber (hello, digestion superheroes!), and 15g protein (gotta keep those muscles fueled for dancing).

So, grab your fork, turn up the music, and let’s make fat loss a fiesta to remember! Ole!
