PREP TIME 15 Min
TOTAL COOK TIME 5 Min
SERVES 1
Ingredients
- 12 Nature Fresh Farms Hiiros™ Tomatoes, halved
- 8 Nature Fresh Farms Cocktail Cucumbers, halved
- ½ cup peanut butter
- 3 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp honey
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- 2 tbsp warm water
- 1 cup medium tofu, patted dry and cubed
- 1 ½ cups loosely packed baby spinach
- 3/4 cup cooked rice
- ½ cup thinly sliced red cabbage
- 1 medium carrot, shredded
- 2 tbsp crushed roasted peanuts
- Fresh cilantro
Directions
Step 1
Wash all produce before preparing.
Step 2
To prepare Thai Peanut Dressing, whisk peanut butter, lime juice, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and ginger in a bowl. Whisk in enough water to make a pourable consistency, about 2 tablespoons.
Step 3
Heat oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat; fry tofu, turning occasionally, until golden all over, about 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat and pour in just enough Thai Peanut Dressing to coat tofu, about ¼ cup.
Step 4
To assemble, line a wide bowl with spinach. Spoon rice in a mound to one side. Working around edge, fill in remaining space with mounds of Tomatoes, followed by Cucumber, cabbage and carrot.
Step 5
Spoon tofu in center of bowl. Garnish with peanuts and cilantro. Serve with additional dressing, if desired.
Chef's Tips
Cover and refrigerate remaining dressing for up to 1 week. Choose a mix of baby spinach and arugula, if preferred, or any of your favorite mixed greens.
