INGREDIENTS
1 block of extra-firm tofu
2 tbsp miso paste
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tbsp garlic powder
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp red chili flakes
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Press the tofu: Put your tofu onto the press. If you do not have a tofu press, just place the tofu on a plate, with another plate on top of it and then stack something heavy on top, like a heavy pot. Leave it for 30 minutes while you prepare salad bowl and dressing.
Once pressed, cut the tofu into small cubes.
In a large bowl, add miso, vinegar, lemon, oil, garlic powder, onion powder, spices, salt and nutritional yeast.
Whisk everything until everything is dissolved. Add tofu cubes into marinade and mix everything until tofu is coated with the sauce (Mix gently. do not break the tofu).
Refrigerate the tofu or at least 24 hours to 36 hours.
Enjoy this feta tofu on salads, nourish bowls, pasta or wraps.
