Ingredients
- 2 heads romaine lettuce (roughly chopped)
- 1 package silken tofu (14 oz)
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon (juiced)
- 2 tsp white miso paste
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 large cloves garlic
- 2 teaspoons capers
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- crispy baked tofu
- freshly cracked black pepper
- vegan-friendly croutons
- vegan parmesan
Instructions
- First, make your dressing: Add all ingredients (tofu, olive oil, lemon, miso, garlic cloves and garlic powder, capers, salt and pepper) to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the salad: Wash, dry, and chop your lettuce. Toss in a large salad bowl with enough dressing to coat. Add the remainder of the toppings, and enjoy!
- TO STORE/SERVE: The dressing can be stored for up to a week in an air-tight container in the fridge. We do NOT recommend freezing the dressing, as it can affect the texture of the silken tofu.
