Tofu Dressing on Salad

This tofu dressing is incredibly creamy and smooth.  It can be served as a salad dressing or a dip for raw vegetables. And it is pretty healthy too!

    1. Hi Mel! You made me laugh, beautiful and younger everyday? You must be joking. I see more 'railway lines' on my face and putting on more weight as days go by. I am the wai sek type, cannot resist eating. So I am trying to cook healthy food to prevent myself from ballooning too much ;-)

    1. I don't think the taste of tofu stands out in this dressing. It's overpowered by other ingredients.
