Recipe: Super Salad with Miso-Tahini Dressing
Feb 26, 2017Yes, 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
