Yes, this is not the first time I’ve posted a variation of this salad, it’s just so darn good!

This is one of those salads that has it all – rice, greens, crunch, protein, dressing – and is easily changeable.

---

Base
1 C Organic Short Grain Brown Rice – cook as directed
Can sub any other grain base of choice

---

Veggies
2 C Kale – massaged & ripped
2 C Lettuce – ripped/cut
2 Bell Peppers – any colours, sliced
1 Zucchini – spiralized
1 Beat – raw, grated
1/3 Cucumber – cubed

---

Spicy Marinated Tofu
1 block Organic Firm Tofu – cubed
1 clove Garlic – crushed
1/2 C Tamari
1-2 tsp Szechwan Sauce – to taste

In a small bowl, mix the Garlic, Tamari, Szechwan Sauce
Place cubed Tofu into a dish (I use a tupperware with lid so I can shake it up)
Pour marinade over the tofu, shake and allow to sit

Bake in the oven at 350/375 for about 20 minutes – until the tofu gets crispy

---

Miso-Tahini Dressing
1 Tbsp Miso Paste – I use White Miso
1 Tbsp Tahini
Olive Oil/Water – to thin
Splash Orange Juice
Splash Maple Syrup
1 clove Garlic – crushed

I love serving this one so the elements touch, but aren’t exactly mixed together
Drizzle with the dressing
