How to Make It
Step 1
Cut the tofu into bite-sized pieces and place in a bowl. Add 2 tbsp olive oil, ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp cayenne, and ½ tsp smoked paprika. Toss gently to coat.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Arrange the tofu over a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
Step 3
Peel and cut the sweet potato into bite-sized pieces. Add to a bowl and season with 1 tbsp olive oil, ½ tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp smoked paprika, and 1/3 tsp salt. Toss to combine.
Step 4
Transfer the potatoes to a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 200°C (400°F). Potatoes should be fully cooked and slightly crispy on the edges.

Prepare the dressing. Peel and mince the garlic. Add the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, ½ tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, ¼ tsp salt, and parsley to a bowl. Mix well and set it aside.
Step 6
Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and season with ½ tsp salt and ¼ tsp black pepper. Stir well and cook for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set it aside.
