  5. Place the baking sheet in the oven and cook for 25 - 30 minutes.
  6. While the tofu and vegetables are cooking, cook your quinoa according to the package instructions (allow 15 minutes for it to cook).

  7. Meanwhile, make your cilantro and lime sauce by adding all of the ingredients to a blender and blitz until smooth and creamy.
    1 cup Greek yogurt, 1 cup cilantro, ½ lime, ¼ cup water, 0.5 tsp garlic powder, salt and pepper
