This Vegan Greek Tofu Salad is a tasty, refreshing dish. Great as a side or main meal served over a bed of lettuce.
Two summers ago, my friend Alex from Delish Knowledge posted this recipe for vegan tofu, and I decided to try it.
I had all the ingredients in my kitchen and was so intrigued.
And y'all... I am so thankful that I tried it because this tofu feta is so incredible.
How to make tofu feta
Making this tofu feta couldn't be much easier.
Just stir together the marinade and add the cubed, pressed tofu.
You must drain the tofu really well, so it can absorb all the marinade and get that feta-like flavor.
Vegan Greek Salad
Once the tofu has marinated for at least a few hours, you toss together all the salad ingredients.
I really like this salad because all the ingredients are already in my kitchen.
