Granny's Award-Winning Tofu-Rice Salad

 

Ingredients:

 

1 c. diced tofu or seitan or a combination of the two

4 c. cooked brown rice or quinoa (wild rice may be

part of it)

1/2 c. pine nuts or chopped pecans, or a combination

of these

3/4 c. golden raisins, plumped in hot water and then

drained

1/2 c. chopped green onions

1/3 c. olive oil

1/4 c. rice vinegar

2 T. light soy sauce or Tamari sauce

1/4 t. pepper

lettuce leaves

paprika

parsley or cilantro

Directions:

 

Toss ingredients, chill one hour. Arrange on lettuce

leaves and sprinkle with paprika; garnish with parsley

or cilantro.

 

The beauty of this is that not only can it be made in

advance, but it MUST be made ahead of time.

 

You can also use seitan instead of, or in addition to

tofu. Use extra firm tofu. I like to marinate mine so

it's tastier.

 

This recipe lends itself well to a small amount of

ginger powder or grated fresh ginger. Also, I use 2-3

t. sesame oil & then add olive oil to make 1/3 c. You

can skip the oil and vinegar & use a soy " mayonnaise. "

 

 

Serves: 4
