Kale and Tofu Salad - Feb 4, 2010
Crispy Kale and Tofu Salad with Coconut
This is a another Heidi Swanson recipe, this time found here, in January's Food & Wine magazine under 'Best New Vegetarian Dishes.' I think what often hooks me with Heidi's recipes is her unexpected use of ingredients. Case in point, here she adds coconut to the mix and turns a 'flip right past it' dish into something extraordinary. It's what made me dog-ear the page. This was simple, quick, and incredibly tasty. It would have been good without the coconut, but the subtle richness and hint of j'ne sais quoi that it added made the dish exponentially better.
