Grilled Tofu and Quinoa Salad with Crunchy Vegetables and Lemon-Tahini Dressing
Char-grilled extra-firm tofu tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables, finished with a creamy lemon-tahini dressing for a bright, nutty finish.
INGREDIENTS
11 ounces Extra Firm Tofu
3 tablespoons Cooked Quinoa
1/4 cup Shelled Edamame
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper, diced
1/2 cup Cucumber, diced
2 teaspoons Tahini
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Press the tofu between paper towels for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then slice into thick planks.
Season the tofu planks with a pinch of sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Grill the tofu over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side until distinct grill marks appear and the edges are slightly charred.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, shelled edamame, diced red bell pepper, and diced cucumber.
In a small ramekin, whisk together the tahini and lemon juice, adding a teaspoon of warm water at a time until the dressing reaches a pourable consistency.
Cut the grilled tofu into bite-sized cubes and add them to the vegetable and quinoa mixture.
Drizzle the lemon-tahini dressing over the salad and toss gently to ensure everything is evenly coated before serving.
