Tofu Salad with Sesame Dressing




Really simple concept but, believe it or not, I had to be told about this one before I thought to make it.

Ingredients:
4 cups romaine lettuce, ripped into small bits and washed thoroughly
1 tomato, diced
1 cucumber, sliced diagonally
1/2 yellow pepper (orange or red are good too), julienne
1/2 peice negi, diced
200g tofu, well-drained and cubed
sesame dressing to taste

Method:
1. Combine all ingredients in a huge bowl and eat. The longer it sits the better.

When buying salad dressings, always be careful of katsuo (fish flavouring). It is in almost everything! I am going to post a homemade sesame dressing recipe for this salad soon.
