This amazing recipe is from Cooking Light magazine, and they give credit to Robin Bashinsky for the original recipe. I've tweaked it a little here, but the idea is still the same.
NOTE: You'll need 2 sheet pans for this recipe.
Ingredients:3 T. canola oil, divided
4 t. curry powder
1 1/4 t. salt, divided
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes that are 1/2-inch in size
1 14-oz pkg extra-firm tofu, drained and cut into cubes that are 3/4-inch in size (If you're new to tofu: get the Chinese kind, not the silken kind. Freeze it for 24 hours, then thaw it before cooking, as this gives it a better texture.)
canola cooking spray
2 10-oz bags frozen cauliflower florets, thawed
6 oz. fresh green beans, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
1/2 c. plain, unsweetened coconut milk yogurt (vegan)
juice of 1/2 lime
1/4 c. chopped unsalted cashews
Method:
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Place 2 rimmed baking sheets in the oven during the preheat.
In a large bowl, combine 2 T. canola oil, curry powder, and 1 t. salt. Add the sweet potatoes and tofu, and toss to coat. Carefully remove the hot sheet pans from the oven and coat each pan's cooking surface with canola cooking spray. Arrange the sweet potato-tofu mixture in a single layer, divided between the 2 pans. Set the tossing bowl aside, and bake the sweet potato-tofu mixture at 500 degrees F for 10 minutes.
While the sweet potato-tofu mixture is cooking, add the last 1 T. oil to the tossing bowl. Add the cauliflower and green beans, then toss to coat.Remove the pans from the oven, and carefully (Caution! It may splatter oil!) add the cauliflower-green bean mixture divided between the two pans. Toss the contents of each pan, then arrange back into a single layer, and return to the oven to bake until the potatoes are tender, about 10 - 12 more minutes.
While this is baking, combine the yogurt, lime juice, and remaining 1/4 t. salt.
When the potatoes are tender (check with a fork), serve the vegetables drizzled with the yogurt sauce and sprinkled with chopped cashews. Serves 4 - 5.
