Beets And Kale With Creamy Tofu Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap beets tightly in parchment-lined foil and roast until tender, about 1 hour. Let cool, then remove skins and slice into rounds. Set aside.
• In a food processor, puree tofu, lemon juice, anchovies, and garlic until smooth. With motor running, slowly add oil until combined. Season with salt.
• Arrange beets on a platter and top with kale. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with 2 tablspoons dressing and top with Parmesan.

Steps:

• Place beets into a large pot, cover with cold, lightly salted water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until beets are soft and can easily be pierced with a fork, about 40 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Peel and cut into cubes.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir smoked tofu until hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Combine tofu, beets, and apple in a bowl.
• Mix yogurt, horseradish, and maple syrup in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Pour over salad and mix well. Let stand until flavors combine, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Wash and trim the beets, removing both ends. Place them on a 12-inch square sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Drizzle with the olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Seal up the foil packet and roast until the beets are fork-tender, about 1 hour.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until medium-crisp (or however you prefer your bacon). Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Increase the heat to high and add the kale, stirring to coat in the rendered bacon grease. Cover and cook for a few minutes, and then add the chicken stock and 2 tablespoons of the vinegar. Stir to combine, cover and allow to wilt for 6 to 8 minutes.
• Peel and cut the beets into chunks and add them to the kale. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar. Add the bacon, stir to combine and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
