Ingredients
  

Oven-Baked Tofu:

  • 15 ounce extra firm tofu
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 2 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Bok Choy Salad:

  • 2 tablespoon fresh cilantro chopped
  • 15 gram green onion sliced
  • 3 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste such as sambal oelek
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 7 drop liquid stevia
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 9 ounce bok choy

Instructions
 

  • Start by pressing the tofu. Wrap the tofu in a kitchen towel and place something heavy on top (like a cast-iron skillet). It takes about 4–6 hours to dry out, so you may need to replace the kitchen towel halfway through.
  • Once the tofu is pressed, create the marinade by combining the soy sauce, sesame oil, water, garlic, vinegar, and lemon juice in a bowl.
  • Chop the tofu into squares and place them in a plastic bag along with the marinade. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes, but preferably overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350F. Place the tofu on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (or a Silpat) and bake for 30–35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, get started on the bok choy salad. Chop up the cilantro and green onion.
  • Mix the coconut oil, soy sauce, chile paste, peanut butter, and liquid stevia in a bowl. Add the cilantro and green onion. Note: If needed, you can microwave the coconut oil for 10–15 seconds to to melt it.
  • Once the tofu is almost cooked, add the lime juice to the salad dressing and whisk to combine.
  • Chop the bok choy into small slices (like you would with cabbage).
  • Remove the tofu from the oven and assemble the salad with tofu, bok choy, and dressing. Enjoy!
