🛒 Ingredients

For the Tofu & Marinade:

  • 600g extra firm tofu
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1.5 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1.5 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1.5 tsp onion powder
  • 3/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/3 tsp dried dill
  • 3/4 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt

🍅 For the Couscous Mix:

  • 1 cup uncooked whole wheat couscous (cooked with 1.5 cups water & a pinch of salt)
  • 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 shredded cucumber
  • 1/4 cup kalamata olives
  • 1/2 cup fresh chopped dill
  • 1/4 diced red onion

🥒 For the Vegan Tzatziki:

  • 250g silken tofu
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1.5 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1.5 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp dried dill
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt & 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 grated cucumber

🥗 The Base:

  • 3 cups shredded lettuce
  • Lemon wedges for serving

👩‍🍳 How to Make It

  1. Marinate the Tofu: Whisk together all the tofu marinade ingredients. Add in your cubed extra firm tofu and let it soak up the flavors for at least 10 minutes. Once ready, pan-fry the tofu in a hot skillet until beautifully golden and crispy on the edges.
  2. Prep the Couscous: Cook the whole wheat couscous according to the instructions. Let it cool down, then mix in the cherry tomatoes, shredded cucumber, olives, fresh dill, and red onion.
  3. Blend the Tzatziki: In a blender, combine the silken tofu, garlic, lemon juice, ACV, dill, onion powder, salt, and pepper until completely smooth. Pour into a bowl and fold in the grated cucumber.
  4. Assemble & Prep: Divide the shredded lettuce, couscous mixture, and golden tofu into 3 meal prep containers. Add the tzatziki on top, but be sure to keep it separate from the lettuce until you are ready to eat so it does not wilt!

Meal prep has never tasted so fresh! Enjoy your healthy lunches for the week!
