Cauliflower "Rice" Salad with Tofu

Honestly, the sauce is what takes this dish to the next level ✈️
Also, I baked the tofu with the fan-assisted setting and it came out so crispy (that’s the way I like it). I ended up with 3 portions instead of 4 and served it as a main dish.
Creative way to use cauliflower and great recipe to say goodbye to the winter season.
Definitely recommended and I will make it again! 😊

Aw love this, Ambra ✨ So glad you enjoyed and thanks for sharing your tweaks!

It was “interesting to try” recipe. Very much like the idea to make cauliflower in a “rice” form.

I would definitely agree with one of the previous comments that to add a bit of more salt would make it less bland. Also I am wondering how to make the tofu a bit crisp after baking? At least mine didn’t after 25 min in the oven, and I wish it could be slightly crisp. Or it wasn’t intended like that in this recipe?

Glad you gave it a try and thanks for the feedback, Julia! We've added a note for salt to add more to taste as needed. As for the tofu, if you’d like it crispier, you can try baking it longer, broiling for the last few minutes, or toss the tofu in a bit of cornstarch before baking for extra crispiness 😊

Thank you so much for your suggestions PUL team! 🤗

loved it! didnt find fresh cauliflower so i swapped it for frozen. it turned out more like a pure since i boiled my cauliflower and it was moist. also dont have an oven, so i cooked tofu in a pan and seasoned it after.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the recipe, Katie! 😊

This was delicious. However, I definitely need to added more salt to make it less bland. Also I was a bit neutral about the coated tofu. It didn’t pick up all the flavors like roasted vegetables in other recipes. But definitely felt like super healthy and nutritious meal!

Thanks for sharing your feedback, Swathi, it's so appreciated! We'll note it down to help us improve ✨

This was delicious!!! The dressing 10/10 :)

Looking at this recipe I was kinda “eh” but I figured I’d give it a go. It tasted better than I thought. You have to put it all together though. The tofu by itself was kinda eh for me. I didn’t use mint or cucumber because I wouldn’t like it. But once I put everything together with the sauce, yum! I still felt like it wasn’t my favorite recipe but for a lower carb and high protein option I’d probably make it again.
