A vibrant, protein-packed salad featuring lightly crispy extra-firm tofu and tender edamame tossed with fresh mixed greens, all dressed in a bright lemon tahini dressing with a subtle umami boost from nutritional yeast. This energizing and satisfying salad is perfect for a hearty vegetarian lunch.
INGREDIENTS
240g Extra Firm Tofu
125g Shelled Edamame
1 tsp Cornstarch
1/4 tbsp Tahini
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens
2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tsp Minced Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into 1/2-inch cubes.
Lightly toss the tofu cubes in cornstarch seasoned with a pinch of salt and pepper for an extra crispy coating.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the tofu cubes. Sauté until all sides are golden and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and let them cool slightly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, 1/4 tablespoon of tahini, and a splash of water to achieve a smooth, slightly runny dressing. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In a large bowl, combine the mixed salad greens with the shelled edamame.
Top the greens with the crispy tofu cubes, then drizzle the lemon tahini dressing evenly over the salad.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of nutritional yeast over the salad for an additional savory boost. Gently toss everything together and serve immediately.
