Seared Tofu and Edamame Salad with Crunchy Vegetables
Enjoy a bright, nutrient-dense lunch featuring seared extra-firm tofu paired with protein-packed edamame and a medley of crunchy vegetables, lightly tossed in a zesty lemon-ginger dressing. This dish delights with a mix of textures and flavors, making every bite refreshing and satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
200g Extra-Firm Tofu
1.25 cup Shelled Edamame
1 medium Carrot
0.5 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
0.5 cup diced Cucumber
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Fresh Ginger (grated)
1 tsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Press the tofu gently to remove excess water, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and sear them until all sides are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
While the tofu sears, steam or boil the edamame until tender if not using pre-cooked, then drain.
In a large bowl, combine the seared tofu, edamame, diced carrot, red bell pepper, and cucumber.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, grated ginger, low-sodium soy sauce, and a pinch of black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all ingredients.
Adjust seasoning if needed and serve immediately for a fresh, crunchy, protein-rich meal.
