| Asian Slaw with Tofu & Shiitake Mushrooms http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/asian_slaw_with_tofu_shiitake_mushrooms.html From EatingWell: Spring 2003, The EatingWell Diabetes Cookbook (2005) A simple slaw is given an Asian twist with bok choy, napa cabbage and a soy-wasabi dressing. The vibrant flavors and rich textures make this a great introduction to tofu for novices and skeptics. 4 servings, about 2 cups each | Active Time: 25 minutes | Total Time: 40 minutes Ingredients | |
| 1/4 cup | reduced-sodium soy sauce |
| 2 1/2 tablespoons | lemon juice |
| 1 teaspoon | wasabi powder,, (see Note) |
| 1 clove | garlic, minced |
| 12 ounces | firm silken tofu, drained and cut into 1/2-inch cubes |
| 4 cups | lightly packed shredded napa cabbage, (see Ingredient note) |
| 2 cups | lightly packed shredded bok choy, (see Ingredient note) |
| 2 tablespoons | canola oil |
| 2 cups | sliced shiitake mushroom caps |
| 2 teaspoons | sesame oil |
Preparation
Whisk soy sauce, lemon juice, wasabi powder and garlic in a medium bowl. Gently stir in tofu. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Place cabbage and bok choy in a large serving bowl.
Drain the tofu, reserving the marinade. Heat canola oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and sesame oil; cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes. Add the tofu; cook, stirring often, until the tofu is lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
Spoon the tofu mixture over cabbage. Add the reserved marinade to the pan and bring to a boil, stirring. Pour the hot marinade over the salad and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.
