Preparation
- Prepare the vinaigrette: Whisk all ingredients together in a bowl.
- Place the carrots, half of each head of cabbage and brussels sprouts in a large bowl with a generous pinch of kosher salt. Toss with enough dressing to lightly coat the greens. Add most of the seeds and gently toss again. Transfer to a serving bowl or platter.
- Get a small non-stick pan very hot. Add a few tablespoon of Thrive® Culinary Algae Oil and about half of the package of tofu. Cook the tofu cubes until crispy on all sides. Drain on a paper towel lined plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the tofu to the top of the salad and sprinkle the remaining seeds over the top.
