Grilled Halloumi and Tofu Salad with Lemon-Herb Vinaigrette

1.Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

2.In a bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of olive oil, dried oregano, dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the sliced tofu and toss to coat. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes.

3.While the tofu is marinating, prepare the lemon-herb vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey (or maple syrup), and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

4.Once the grill is hot, place the marinated tofu slices on the grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and grill marks appear. Remove from the grill and set aside.

5.Next, grill the halloumi slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden and slightly softened. Be careful not to overcook, as halloumi can become rubbery.

6.In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed spring greens, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and sliced mushrooms. Toss gently to combine.

7.Add the grilled tofu and halloumi to the salad. Drizzle the lemon-herb vinaigrette over the top and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.

8.Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley.
