Ingredients
Salad
- 1 pack (8oz) extra firm tofu, drained and cut into cubes
- 1 medium head red cabbage, chopped
- 2 red bell peppers, chopped
- 1/3 cup green onions, chopped
Tofu Marinade
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup from Canada
- 2 tbsp coconut aminos
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1/4 tsp garlic
- 1/4 tsp ginger paste (or powder)
Salad Dressing
- 3 tbsp coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1.5 tbsp pure maple syrup from Canada

Method
- Place tofu between two towels and press down with something heavy (i.e skillet, pots and pans, etc). Let moisture drain for 25 minutes before cutting into cubes.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine ingredients for marinade. Add cubed tofu into a shallow baking dish and pour marinade over to completely cover the tofu. Combine until evenly coated and allow to marinate for 30 minutes.
- Heat oil in a large cooking pan over medium heat – add tofu. Cook 3-4 minutes per side until golden. Add remaining marinade and toss until evenly coated. Remove from the skillet.
- Combine ingredients for salad dressing and toss with remaining ingredients for salad. Serve with tofu cubes on top.
