side dishes | Tofu takes on the flavors of the foods it's combined with. Keep some on hand and use it like we did in this recipe as a healthy alternative to mayonnaise.

Ingredients:
3 oz soft tofu
1/2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp dill, leaves
1/4 tsp table salt
4 cup lettuce
3/4 pound beets, cooked, peeled and sliced (about 4 medium beets)
1/2 pound green snap beans, blanched and cooled
1 medium whole hard-boiled egg(s), peeled and quartered
1 small red onion(s), sliced
1 Tbsp capers
1/8 tsp black pepper

Directions:

To make vinaigrette, combine tofu, mustard, lemon juice, dill and salt in a blender; pulse until smooth. Toss with lettuce and divide between 2 large plates.

Arrange beets, green beans and egg on top of lettuce. Top with sliced onion and sprinkle with capers. Grind pepper over salads and serve.
