Ingredients
- 8 ounce smoked tofu See Note
- 8 ounce rice noodles
- 1 red bell pepper seeded and sliced into matchsticks
- 1 large carrot peeled into thin strips
- 2 yellow chard leaves thinly sliced
- 1 cup basil leaves
- 2 tablespoon black sesame seeds
FOR THE DRESSING
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce or liquid aminos to make it gluten-free
- 2 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- Chili garlic sauce See Note
- 1 teaspoon ginger minced or ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 2 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the noodles according to the instructions on the package. Drain and rinse in cold water and set aside.
- While the noodles are boiling, sear the tofu for about 2 minutes per side. Slice into strips when cool enough to handle.
- Arrange the noodles, tofu and vegetables on a plate or in a bowl and pour the dressing on top and toss to combine. Sprinkle the sesame seeds and basil leaves on top.
FOR THE DRESSING
- Whisk the ingredients together in a small bowl until completely combined.
Notes
- Add the chili sauce slowly until the spiciness of the dressing is to your liking.
- To make this gluten-free, use liquid aminos in place of the soy sauce.
- We purchase our smoked tofu from Whole Foods, and most large grocery chains carry prepared tofu. If you can't find it, you can marinate firm pressed tofu in a ½ cup (120 ml) of soy sauce or liquid aminos with 1 teaspoon of liquid smoke or smoked paprika overnight.
