Baked Tofu & Bean Salad

I love baked tofu.  You can make it yourself ~or~ Trader Joe's sells two flavors: Teriyaki and Savory and they are delicious!  This can be eaten as a snack or served as a side dish.



Baked Tofu & Bean Salad

1 (15 oz) can Red Kidney Beans, rinsed
1 (7 oz) Packaged Baked Tofu Teriyaki Flavor, chopped in bite size cubes
1 1/2 Cups Shelled Edamame
1/2 Red Pepper, diced
1 Tbsp Miso Paste
3 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 Tbsp Soy Sauce (low sodium)
1 tsp Rice Vinegar
1 tsp Mirin (or honey)
1/4 tsp Sesame Oil
1/2 tsp Ground Mustard

Mix the beans, tofu, edamame, and bell pepper in a glass bowl.  In a separate small bowl, combine the miso through the ground mustard and whisk together.  Pour dressing over the tofu and bean mixture and toss to coat.
