Marrinated Tofu and Raw spinach salad

Need a quick dinner or lunch idea that is nutritionally balanced and truly delish then look no further!

What you need:

300g Uncooked Tofu (hard is best)
Handful of Black olives
Half a Courgette
Handful of raw spinach
2 cloves of Garlic
pumkin seeds
Olive oil
Tamari
Ground coriander
pepper

Cut the tofu into large chunks and put into a bowl with a splash of olive oil, olives, pumpkin seeds, chopped garlic, table spoon of tamari and black pepper.  Leave to Marinate for at least 30 minutes... the longer the better.

In a frying pan heat up some olive oil and add your marinated tofu with all the sauce, garlic and olives. Add your courgettes.  Let the tofu cook on a medium high heat for 2 mins on each side then add the coriander and another table spoon of tamari and a slash of water. (at the water so that your food does not over heat and lose all the nutrients.)
Cook for a further 4 minutes until the courgettes are cooked and the water has evaporated.

Serve on top of a bed of raw spinach leaves and drizzle olive oil and balsamic over the top.

ENJOY!
