  • 1/4 lb tofu
  • 2 T sesame seeds
  • 1/4 c peanut butter
  • 1 T soy sauce
  • 2 T brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 T lime juice
  • 1/2 t chili garlic sauce
  • 4 1/2 c packed kale
  • 2 t sesame oil
  • 2 t agave
  • 1/2 c thinly sliced radishes
  • 1/2 c thinly sliced carrots

Crunchy Thai Kale Salad Directions

  1. Wrap the tofu in a towel and gently press out moisture. Let sit 5 minutes. Slice into cubes, then toss in the sesame seeds to coat. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, brown sugar, 1 ½ tablespoon of lime juice, and chili garlic sauce. Whisk in very hot water, a tablespoon at a time, until the sauce is pourable. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Set aside.
  3. Place the kale in a large bowl and add remaining teaspoon of lime juice, sesame oil, and agave. Massage the kale with your hands for 1 minute to incorporate the ingredients and soften the leaves. Transfer to a plate or bowl, and top with sliced radishes, carrot, and sesame-tofu cubes. Serve with peanut sauce.
  4. Leftover peanut sauce will keep covered and refrigerated for 2 days.
