EXTRA HEALTHY SPINACH SALAD



Extra Healthy Spinach Salad image

I just love VT's recipes. Here's one that contains protein, calcium, iron and B12. This recipe was from the March 2005 issue. NOTE: Preparation time does not include time to cool salad dressing after cooking. After reading this recipes first review, I added the reserved Mandarin orange juice to the list of ingredients.

Categories     Spinach

Time 43m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 ounces extra-firm herb tofu
1 large egg
1/4 cup flour
3 teaspoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons canola oil
3 tablespoons mandarin orange juice (reserved from can of Mandarin oranges used in salad)
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
3 ounces Baby Spinach, rinsed
3 ounces mesclun, rinsed
1 (15 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained, juice reserved
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1 red bell pepper, cut in 1/4-inch slices
1 (7 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed well
1 cup feta cheese

Steps:

  • To make Tofu Croutons:.
  • Preheat oven to 350F and bake tofu 20 minutes.
  • When the tofu is dry, cut it into 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch cubes (about the size of a crouton).
  • Beat egg in small bowl.
  • In another bowl, combine flour, garlic salt, onion powder and black pepper.
  • Dip tofu cubes in egg, and dust with flour mixture.
  • Heat oil in nonstick pan or, for extra iron, in a well seasoned iron pan over medium-high heat.
  • Fry tofu cubes until golden and crispy on all sides (takes about 10 minutes) and cool (if you're using an iron pan, watch very carefully so tofu doesn't burn).
  • To make Salad Dressing:.
  • Combine all ingredients in nonreactive pot (such as stainless steel, enameled aluminum or anodized aluminum - don't use a regular aluminum pan as it will react with the acid.).
  • Cook over medium heat 2 until sugar dissolves (takes about 2 to 3 minutes).
  • Pour dressing into a cruet or other small container and cool.
  • To make Spinach Salad:.
  • Place all ingredients in large serving bowl.
  • Pour in half of dressing, toss until coated, garnish with croutons and enjoy.
