Crispy Plant-Based Nuggets with Spinach Tomato Salad and Creamy Cottage Cheese
Savor a balanced plate featuring crispy, golden-baked tofu nuggets encrusted in seasoned whole wheat flour and nutritional yeast for a satisfying crunch, accompanied by a refreshing spinach and tomato salad tossed in a zesty lemon dressing, and complemented with a side of creamy, low-fat cottage cheese.
INGREDIENTS
200g Extra Firm Tofu
30g Whole Wheat Flour (approx. 1/4 cup)
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 spray Olive Oil
1 cup Baby Spinach
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut into nugget-sized pieces.
In a shallow dish, combine whole wheat flour, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Coat each tofu piece lightly in the flour mixture.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil. Cook the tofu pieces for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
While the tofu cooks, prepare the salad by tossing baby spinach and halved cherry tomatoes with lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a light drizzle of olive oil if desired.
Plate the crispy tofu nuggets alongside the fresh salad and serve with a side of creamy low-fat cottage cheese.
Enjoy your balanced meal packed with protein and vibrant flavors.
