INGREDIENTS
240g Extra Firm Tofu
1/4 cup Shelled Edamame
1/8 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 cup Mixed Greens
5 halves Cherry Tomatoes
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press and drain the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into bite-sized cubes.
In a non-stick skillet, lightly spray or brush a small amount of oil and pan-fry the tofu over medium-high heat until it turns golden and crispy on all sides. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper during cooking.
While the tofu is crisping up, prepare the quinoa if not already cooked. Measure out 1/8 cup of cooked quinoa and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, shelled edamame, and cooked quinoa.
Add the crispy tofu to the salad, then sprinkle the nutritional yeast over the top for an extra savory, cheesy flavor boost.
Drizzle with fresh lemon juice and toss gently to combine all ingredients. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing, high-protein, vegetarian power salad.
