Avocado Tofu Ginger Salad


This salad is incredibly simple and super tasty!

INGREDIENTS (for 2)

1 avocado
1/2 tofu block (soft or firm, whatever you prefer)
1 green onion (or 2, depending on how big the onions are)
1 tbsp shredded fresh ginger
1/4 sheet nori seaweed 
1 tbsp toasted white sesame seeds

Salad dressing:
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 lime juice


PREPARATION

Cut the avocado into small cubes and place in 2 bowls.
Squeeze the lime juice on top of it.
Cut the tofu into small cubes and add.
Cut the green onion into very thin slices and add.
Cut out a quarter of a nori sheet (reserve the other part for future cooking). Then cut it in half, put the halves together and cut in half again. Put together and repeat again. You should have now layers of small rectangles together. Cut them into thin strips and add.
Add the shredded ginger.
Add the sesame seeds. (If you don't have the toasted kind, just put a skillet over medium heat -no oil- and toast the seeds for a minute or two. You'll know when they're ready because they will smell really nutty and good).

In a separate bowl, put all the ingredients for the dressing together and whip them until it's well mixed.
Add to bowls and serve immediately.
