Honey Sesame Baked Tofu and Quinoa Salad

  1. For making the quinoa:
  2. Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan.
  3. Stir in quinoa and bring to a boil again.
  4. Reduce to a gentle simmer, cover and cook until the water is absorbed, about 12 minutes.
  5. Uncover and allow to stand.
  6. For the carrot slaw:
  7. At the same time, toss together carrots, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon soy sauce in a medium bowl.
  8. Set aside.
  9. For the baked tofu:
  10. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  11. Stir in baked tofu and cook, stirring constantly, until starting to brown, about 8 minutes.
  12. Whisk together honey, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons water and cornstarch in a small bowl.
  13. Pour into the pan and cook, stirring, until the sauce has thickened and coats the baked tofu, 1 to 2 minutes.
  14. Divide the quinoa among 4 plates and top each with 1/2 cup carrot slaw and 3/4 cup baked tofu mixture.
  15. Sprinkle with sliced scallions.
  16. Serve warm.
