Ingredients

  • 1 block firm tofu drained and dried of excess liquid
  • 2 tsp. apple cider vinegar
  • salt
  • 2-3 large tomatoes sliced into 16 slices
  • 16 basil leaves
  • 1 tsp. olive oil
  • balsamic glaze to taste
  • fresh cracked pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • TO PREPARE THE TOFU: Slice the tofu into 8 equal slices lengthwise. Next, cut the tofu down the center in the opposite direction. You will have 16 equal slices. Place the tofu slices in a baking dish and dry off slices with a paper towel. Coat evenly with apple cider vinegar and a sprinkle of salt.* Place in the fridge to marinate for 15-30 minutes.
  • TO ASSEMBLE: To a serving dish layer a slice of tomato, followed by a slice of marinated tofu, followed by a basil leaf. Repeat this layering until you use all of the ingredients. Right before serving, drizzle olive oil and balsamic glaze evenly over salad. Top with fresh pepper and serve. Enjoy!

Notes

*You don't need to go over the top with the salt, but you do want to make sure there is an adequate amount on each slice.
