Smoked Tofu & Sweet Potato Summer Salad

A light, summery salad that’s protein-packed with smoked tofu, as well as roasted sweet potato and salad vegetables.

When summer rolls around, sometimes there’s nothing better for lunch than a salad.

I don’t mean the traditional interpretation of salad though, with just green leaves and nothing else.

This salad has delicious, crispy smoked tofu and smokey-roasted sweet potato, topped with a tangy apple cider vinegar dressing.

This salad is going to leave you feeling satisfied and full, without feeling uncomfortable.

I love to crisp up my tofu for a warm aspect to the salad, but you could easily make this in advance to take to work with you and eat it cold – the choice is yours!
