Day Twelve - Tofu or not tofu? That is the question.


I finally got around to mixing up a new recipe. This one is not too bad. I'm not the biggest fan of raw recipes. It taste better to actually cook something. But this is good for a summer sandwich. And tofu is pretty much the coolest stuff ever.

BBQ Tofu Salad

1/2 lb. firm tofu (preferably herbed tofu)
1/2 cup green peppers, diced
1/2 cup Spanish onion, diced
2 Tbsp. cilantro, roughly chopped
1/2 tsp. cumin
1/2 cup whole-kernel corn
1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
1/4 cup barbecue sauce


• Wrap the tofu in clean towels and gently squeeze the water out. Dice into ½-inch cubes. Dice the green peppers and onions. Chop the cilantro into small pieces. Combine these ingredients in a large bowl, being careful not to break the tofu cubes.
• Combine the cumin, corn, vegan mayonnaise, and barbecue sauce in a small bowl. Mix well.
• Gently combine the tofu mixture with the dressing.

Makes enough salad for 6 sandwiches
