Ingredients

Thai Almond Sauce:

• ⅓ Cup Smooth Almond Butter
• 2 Tablespoons Lime Juice
• 2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
• 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
• 2 Cloves Garlic, Minced
• 1 Tablespoon Minced Fresh Ginger
• ½ - 1 Red Thai Chili (Bird’s Eye Chili Pepper), Seeded and Minced

Mango Tofu Salad:

• 2 (8-Ounce Packages) Baked Tofu, Diced
• 2 Ripe Mangoes, Diced
• 1 ½ Cups Cherry Tomatoes, Halved
• 1 Small Shallot, Finely Diced
• ⅓ Cup Fresh Cilantro, Minced
• 1 Jalapeño, Seeded and Minced
• 3 Tablespoons Lime Juice
• ¼ Teaspoon Salt

For Assembly:

• 1 Head Bibb, Boston, or Butter Lettuce
• ¼ Cup Sliced Almonds

Instructions

1. Begin by making the almond sauce. Simply toss all the ingredients into your blender or food processor and thoroughly puree, pausing to scrape down the sides with your spatula as needed to incorporate any bigger pieces stuck to the container. Adjust the spice level to taste, using more or less of the chili pepper as desired. Transfer to a shallow dish for serving, or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks.
2. The salad itself comes together just as quickly. Place all the ingredients in a large bowl and stir to combine. This can be prepared up to a day in advance, covered and stored in the fridge.
3. To assemble the lettuce cups, separate the leaves from the head of lettuce and fill each one with a generous helping of the salad, drizzle with almond sauce, and top with sliced almonds. Alternatively, serve these components separately and let guests build their own. Serve with additional almond sauce on the side for drizzling or dipping.
