BLT Salad with Better Than Bacon and Mango-Chili VinaigretteThis salad was a variation of the Better Than Bacon BLTs with Mango Mayonnaise that I made at the beginning of the month. I used mesclun greens for our salad plus grape tomatoes, sliced avocado, sliced mango, grilled sprouted grain bread that I cut into chunks, Better Than Bacon and Mango-Chili Vinaigrette.

Mango-Chili Vinaigrette

I didn't write out proportions as I was making this, but as with any salad dressing, you can taste as you go along and make adjustments to suit your taste.

1/2 mango, peeled and chopped

1 small hot chili pepper, seeded

juice of half a lime

splash of apple cider vinegar

small handful of cilantro, roughly chopped

salt

sunflower oil

Whiz all ingredients, except cilantro, together in a mini food processor. Stir in cilantro. Adjust seasoning, if necessary.

Recipe: Better Than Bacon from VegCooking.com. I used 350g of extra firm tofu, reduced the amount of soy sauce to 5-6 tablespoons and used the full amount of everything else. A Y-peeler works great for slicing the tofu into very thin strips.
