From RealAge: The best thing about tofu - besides its nutritional value - is the way it carries other flavors, such as the tanginess of this sesame dressing. Serve this warm salad with crunchy breadsticks and a tall glass of iced jasmine tea. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons canola oil |
2 tablespoons rice vinegar |
1 tablespoon honey |
2 teaspoons reduced sodium soy sauce |
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil |
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 (14 ounce) package extra firm tofu, rinsed, patted dry and cut into 1-inch cubes |
8 cups mixed salad greens |
2 medium carrots, peeled, halved lengthwise and sliced |
1 large cucumber, chopped |
Directions:
1. Whisk canola oil, vinegar, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and salt in a bowl.
2. Place tofu and 2 tablespoons of the dressing in a large nonstick skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, turning every 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes total. Remove from the heat, add 1 tablespoon of the dressing to the pan and stir to coat.
3. Toss greens, carrots and cucumber with the remaining dressing. Serve immediately, topped with the warm tofu.
