Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Salad
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 lb block firm tofu, cut into 1/2-inch strips lengthwise
1 medium head green or red cabbage, shredded or chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
3 medium cucumbers, peeled, seeded and cut into bite-sized cubes
2/3 cup chopped green onions
Peanut Dressing
1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp soy sauce (light or regular)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Pat tofu strips dry, then sauté until light brown (about 4 minutes per side). Combine vegetables in a large bowl. In a medium bowl, mix dressing ingredients with 2 tbsp water (puree in blender for a smoother texture). Pour 3/4 dressing over vegetables and toss. Top salad with tofu strips and drizzle on remainder of dressing.
