    Ingredients

    • 5 medium Yukon Gold or red-skinned potatoes
    • 14- to 16- ounce tub extra-firm tofu
    • 1 tablespoon exra-virgin olive oil
    • ½ medium green pepper cut into short thin strips
    • ½ medium red bell pepper cut into short thin strips
    • ¼ to ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes oil-cured or not, as you prefer, thinly sliced
    • ½ cup natural bottled vinaigrette or homemade vinaigrette
    • Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    • Microwave or bake the potatoes in their skins until done but still firm. Let them cool to room temperature. Slip their skins off when they’ve cooled and cut into ½- to ¾-inch chunks and place in a serving container.
    • Meanwhile, cut the tofu into ½-inch-thick slices. Blot well between clean tea-towels or several layers of paper towel, and cut into ½-inch dice.
    • Heat just enough oil to coat the bottom of a wide skillet. Add the tofu and sauté over medium-high heat, stirring frequently until golden on most sides.
    • Combine the tofu with the potatoes in the serving container. Add the remaining ingredients and stir together gently.
    • Cover and allow the salad to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour. If needed, add a bit more vinaigrette to moisten, then stir again and serve.
