Before you Start: It’s optional to press the tofu but if you’d like to take that step, you’ll need 20-30 minutes to press it. Use a tofu press or wrap the block of tofu in a dish cloth, put it on a plate and place a heavy object on it.
Add the cubed tofu to a bowl with the soy sauce or tamari, cornstarch, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Gently toss it to coat.
Quick Tip: Want spicy baked tofu? Add 2 tsp sambal oelek or sriracha or 1 tsp cayenne or red chili flakes. You can also play around with other ingredients like rice vinegar, sesame oil or sweet chili sauce.

Add the cubed tofu to a baking tray lined with parchment paper so each piece has some space around it. This is key for crispiness!
You can flip it once half way through but I usually skip that step. It still gets crispy even without flipping it!
Remove the outer leaves of the head of cabbage, chop it in half and then into smaller chunks. Add the chunks to a food processor and pulse a few times to create a rice-like consistency.

Quick Tip: If you don’t want to take the extra step to “rice” the cabbage, just chop it and add right to the skillet. It could also be done in an Instant Pot or roasted for variations.
Heat the coconut oil or another oil of choice in a large skillet or wok then add the “riced” cabbage, green onion and cilantro.
Quick Tip: Mix the ingredients well to start then let it sit for a few minutes before stirring again to allow it to brown on the bottom. Scrape the browned bits back in and repeat!

Drizzle the finely chopped kale with 1-2 tsp oil of choice. Massage the kale with your hands until it’s softened and dark green.

To press tofu, slice the tofu block into 3-4 slabs. Lay the slabs on a dishtowel on the counter top, then fold the towel over them. Place a cutting board or skillet on top of them along with a few heavy objects such as some cookbooks. Let sit for 15-30 minutes before proceeding with the recipe. You can also use a tofu press if you have one. This is optional but will make it a little crispier.
Bowls can be packed and stored in the fridge up to 3 days if you leave the avocado off until serving. I would also recommend storing the sauce separately.
To save time, tofu can be baked up to 3 days in advance and almond butter sauce can be prepared up to 5 days in advance. Broccoli and kale can be chopped and stored raw for up to 3 days before preparing the bowls.Low-carb vegetarian meals can be a difficult area because a lot of low-carb diets rely on meat to bulk up your protein levels. There is also the issue that a lot of starchy vegetables contain a large number of carbs themselves. All-in-all you may have struggled to find varied and tasty meals to turn to.
