INGREDIENTS
200 grams Firm Tofu
0.75 cup Shelled Edamame
50 grams Mixed Salad Greens
0.5 medium Red Bell Pepper
0.5 cup Cucumber
1.5 tablespoon Hemp Seeds
0.33 tablespoon Lemon Tahini Dressing
PREPARATION
Press the tofu gently with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Cut into 1-inch cubes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly season the tofu with salt, pepper, and your preferred spices, then cook until all sides are golden and slightly crispy. Set aside to cool.
While the tofu cools, prepare the edamame if needed and roughly chop the mixed salad greens, red bell pepper, and cucumber.
In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini (using 0.33 tablespoon), fresh lemon juice, a small crushed garlic clove, and enough water to achieve a drizzly consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large bowl, combine the salad greens, red bell pepper, cucumber, and edamame. Add the crispy tofu cubes and sprinkle with hemp seeds.
Drizzle the lemon tahini dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all the flavors.
Serve immediately and enjoy this light yet protein-packed lunch.
