Ingredients:

  • 1 x 396g block Cauldron Authentic Tofu

  • 2/3 cloves of garlic

  • 1 red onion

  • 1 handful of tomatoes

  • Pasta

  • Fresh basil & chives

  • 1/2 Lemon

  • Olive oil

  • Oregano

  • Nutritional yeast

  • Salt and pepper

Method:

  1. Start by draining and removing the excess water from the Authentic Tofu, then cut into bite-size cubes. In a glass bowl, mix together the olive oil (around 3 tbsp) with a handful of chopped chives and basil, a generous pinch of nutritional yeast, dried oregano, and 2 or 3 cloves of garlic, salt and pepper.

  2. Meanwhile, get a pot of water to boil. When it’s bubbling, add the dried pasta with a large pinch of salt and cook until al-dente.

  3. Prepare the salad by finely chopping the red onion, halving the tomatoes and chopping a few more handfuls of fresh basil.

  4. When the pasta has just cooked, drain the water and drizzle in a little olive oil, then squeeze 1/2 lemon over, add a generous pinch of salt and stir through. Add all of the other ingredients to a large bowl with the pasta, stir together and enjoy!
