Tofu Satay - mid-week dinner win!<\/h2>\n

Honestly I could live off a pretty simple diet of whole foods with minimal sauces\/dressings – I prefer my food light like this and can appreciate the full flavour of good produce.<\/p>\n

But living with a meat-and-cheese-eating wine-loving Croatian man – not gonna happen.<\/p>\n

In order to find a happy medium, and prevent him sneaking off down the road for yet another pizza with all the toppings, hearty and flavour-packed meals are where it’s at.<\/p>\n

This tofu satay recipe caters to us both just perfectly: the satay – rich, thick, fragrant, sweet, spicy, tangy. The ‘Life Force Salad’ (I know, I’m such a fairy sometimes) – colourful, light, antioxidant packed, and tossed with a killer dressing. Big ticks from us both all round.<\/p>\n

It's also a recipe you can whip up in under 30 minutes - and, you’ll have enough for two generous mains or three smaller meals.<\/p>\n
