The Salad Bar + Asian Garlic Tofu from Jason Buhay

Eating healthy doesn’t have to be boring, and especially in times like these, it’s important to mix up your daily routine and add some color and fun into your diet! And we’re so thankful to have trainers that know the importance of nutrition, like Jason Buhay up at Bay Club Portland who shared with us this incredible recipe. Get ready for a tasty salad to brighten up your day!

So, let’s flip the script and integrate the whole family! Time for a salad bar! If the kids are old enough they can do some of the prep too (we don’t mind a little help!). As Jason likes to say, “Food for your Family, Fuel for your Future!”

First, follow the recipe for the tofu, dressing, and then toppings. Fill free to mix up the protein, dressing, or toppings to your family’s preferences!
