Instructions
- Thinly slice cucumber into rounds.
- Peel, then cut onion into ½-inch rounds (keeping rings together).
- Halve ciabatta.
- Transfer onions and ciabatta halves to a plate. Brush with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add half the maple syrup and half the mustard to a shallow dish. Stir to combine. (NOTE: This is your maple-mustard sauce.)
- Add vinegar, remaining maple syrup, remaining mustard and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
- Add cucumbers, then toss to coat. Set aside.
- Pat tofu dry with paper towels. Cut tofu in half, parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have two square tofu steaks per block.) Using a fork, poke tofu all over. Season with Zesty Garlic Blend, salt and pepper. Drizzle 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil over top.
- Add tofu to one side of the grill. Close lid and grill, flipping once, until grill-marked, 4-5 min per side.
- When tofu is done, brush one side with maple-mustard sauce, then flip. Grill for 30 sec, then repeat on the other side.
- Transfer tofu to the same dish with any remaining maple-mustard sauce, then toss to coat.
- Meanwhile, add onions to the other side of the grill. Close lid and grill, flipping once, until tender, 5-7 min per side.
- Meanwhile, add ciabatta slices to the grill. Close lid and grill until ciabatta is crisp and grill marks form, 2-3 min per side.
- Transfer onions and grilled ciabatta to a plate to cool.
- Cut cooled ciabatta into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add spinach and half the ciabatta croutons to the large bowl with cucumbers. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Separate onion rings. If desired, cut onions into bite-sized pieces.
- Thinly slice tofu.
- Divide salad between plates.
- Top with remaining croutons, onions, tofu and any remaining sauce from the dish.
- Sprinkle with salad topping mix.
If you've opted to get tofu, pat dry with paper towels. Cut tofu in half, parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have two square tofu steaks per block.) Using a fork, poke tofu all over. Season tofu in the same way the recipe instructs you to season the turkey. Grill tofu, flipping once, until grill-marked, 4-5 min per side. Follow the rest of the recipe as written.
