Vegan Salade Tricolore

A fresh and colourful salad full of protein and nutrients.

Ingredients: (Serves 2 people as a main or 4 people as a starter)tricolore07finished

  • 2 avocados
  • 4 medium tomatoes
  • 1 packet of tofu (the one I used is 396g)
  • Fresh mint
  • Olive oil
  • Apple cider vinegar
  • Tamari
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1- Cut the tofu in small cubes, tricolore06tofuarrange them in an oven dish, drizzle with olive oil and cook for 20 minutes at 160 degrees (fan oven)
  • 2- Peel the avocados and slice them thinly for dainty petals
  • 3- Arrange the avocados in flower shapes in a pretty dish. You can do this on a main dish or on separate plates for your guests
  • 4- Glaze the avocado flowers with apple cider vinegar: it smoothes the avocados’ texture, makes them shiny and stops the tricolore02avoflowers fading…
  • 5- Slice the tomatoes and arrange on the dish between the avocado flowers
  • 6- Drizzle some olive oil and apple cider vinegar on the tomatoes. Rather than mixing a vinaigrette, I like to drizzle tricolore04vinegarthe oil and the vinegar separately because I just love the taste of pure olive oil on a tomato slice. By keeping them separate, some of the fruit will have a mix of oil and sharp vinegar and some will only have the velvety texture of the oil. Sprinkle some salt and pepper
  • 7- When the tofu is ready, drizzle it with Tamari
  • 8- Arrange the tofu cubes on top of the tomatoes
  • 9- Scatter the chopped mint all over

Et voilá!
