Crispy Tofu and Mixed Greens Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette
Enjoy a vibrant, refreshing salad featuring golden, crispy tofu cubes paired with a bed of crunchy mixed greens and red bell pepper slices. A tangy lemon vinaigrette, enriched by the savory kick of nutritional yeast and a boost of pea protein, ties the dish together for a clean, high-protein, and satisfying lunch.
INGREDIENTS
150g Extra-Firm Tofu
25g Pea Protein Powder
50g Mixed Salad Greens
7g Nutritional Yeast
50g Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Press and drain the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Arrange the tofu cubes on a lined baking sheet. Optionally sprinkle with a pinch of salt and garlic powder, then bake for about 20-25 minutes until the tofu is crisp and golden on the outside, turning halfway through.
In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice with the pea protein powder to help integrate it into the dressing. (The pea protein will add a light creaminess and an extra protein boost.)
In a larger bowl, combine the mixed salad greens and red bell pepper slices.
Once the tofu is done, add it to the greens. Drizzle the lemon-pea protein dressing over the salad and sprinkle the nutritional yeast on top.
Toss gently to combine all ingredients, ensuring the tofu remains crispy. Serve immediately and enjoy your high-protein, refreshing lunch!
