Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 block (14 oz) extra-firm tofu, pressed and cubed
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens (e.g., arugula, spinach, baby kale)
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss halved potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 30–35 minutes, flipping halfway.
  2. Meanwhile, toss tofu cubes with 1 tbsp olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Spread on a separate baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, turning once, until golden and crisp.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper to make the dressing.
  4. In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, roasted potatoes, tofu, and sliced red onion.
  5. Drizzle with the dressing and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Let potatoes and tofu cool slightly before adding to greens to avoid wilting.
  • Add toasted nuts or seeds for extra crunch and nutrition.
  • Use vegan mayo or tahini for a creamy dressing variation.
  • Great for meal prep—store components separately and combine before serving.
