• Check out our pan-fried tofu recipe linked in the ingredients list. It takes 15 minutes to make. While it cooks, you can prep the veggies.
• To a large salad bowl, add chopped lettuce, corn, chopped cucumber (I like to keep the peel on), thinly sliced green onions, and cherry or plum tomatoes cut in half (if using larger tomatoes, cut them in half first, then slice them into wedges).We don't add the avocado just yet, or it'll get mushy and turn brown.
• Add the pan-fried tofu on top, then add about half of the dressing. We are making this with tahini dressing, but you can really use your favorite dressing for this tofu salad.
• Mix the salad until everything is well coated in the dressing. Then add thinly sliced or diced avocado. Give it another mix, taste, adjust for salt, and serve immediately.Serve the remaining dressing on the side for people to add as they like.

COLD TOFU SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND PEACHES

Steps:

• Prepare the tofu: Carefully drain the tofu in its packaging, then remove the tofu. Gently wrap it with paper towels or a clean kitchen towel to absorb excess moisture and set it on a plate.
• Meanwhile, prepare the peaches and tomatoes: Pit and cut each peach into 1-inch-thick wedges, then core and cut each tomato into 1-inch-thick wedges. Place tomatoes and peaches on a serving platter, pouring any tomato or peach juices from the cutting board over the dish. Season generously with flaky sea salt to draw out juices.
• Remove the tofu from the paper towels and place it back on the plate. Using a large spoon, scoop out tofu mounds onto the tomatoes and peaches. Season tofu with flaky sea salt.
• Prepare the dressing: In a small glass jar, combine dressing ingredients, cover and shake to combine. Spoon 4 tablespoons of the dressing over the tomatoes, peaches and tofu. Extra dressing can be served alongside.
• Just before serving, stack together the basil and mint leaves and roughly chop. Top the salad with chopped herbs and black pepper. Serve immediately, taking care to spoon extra dressing and juices from the bottom of the platter.
