- 1 block (14 oz) extra-firm tofu, pressed and cubed
 
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved
 
- 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
 
- 1 tsp dried thyme
 
- 1 tsp dried oregano
 
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
 
- Salt and black pepper to taste
 
- 4 cups mixed salad greens (e.g., arugula, spinach, baby kale)
 
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
 
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
 
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
 
- 1 tsp maple syrup or honey
 
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
 
		 
	 
	
		
		
			
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss halved potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 30–35 minutes, flipping halfway.
 
- Meanwhile, toss tofu cubes with 1 tbsp olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Spread on a separate baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, turning once, until golden and crisp.
 
- In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper to make the dressing.
 
- In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, roasted potatoes, tofu, and sliced red onion.
 
- Drizzle with the dressing and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.
 
		 
	 
	
		Notes
		
			
- Let potatoes and tofu cool slightly before adding to greens to avoid wilting.
 
- Add toasted nuts or seeds for extra crunch and nutrition.
 
- Use vegan mayo or tahini for a creamy dressing variation.
 
- Great for meal prep—store components separately and combine before serving.
