How to Make The Body Combat Salad

  1. Marinate 1 block (14 oz) firm or extra-firm tofu in 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Marinate for at least 10 minutes (or overnight for best results).
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add marinated tofu and pan-fry until golden brown and most of the liquid has evaporated (about 5-7 minutes), stirring occasionally.
  3. While tofu cooks, prepare the vegetables: Combine 1 cup broccoli florets, 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers (any color), 1/2 cup shredded carrots, and 1/4 cup chopped red onion in a large bowl.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of 1/4 lemon and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  5. Once the tofu has cooled slightly, add it to the vegetable mixture. Pour the lemon-olive oil dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
  6. For meal prepping, omit the lemon-olive oil dressing and pack a 1/4 lemon wedge separately. Add the dressing just before serving.
