Ingredients
Tofu "feta"
-
5.6 oz (160 g)firm tofu, drained
-
-
½ tspsalt
-
½ tsponion powder
-
⅛ tspdried dill
Poppyseed dressing
-
¼ cup (60 mL)vegan mayonnaise
-
-
-
1 Tbsp (15 mL)vegetable oil
-
1 Tbsp (9 g)poppy seeds (optional)
-
½ tspdijon mustard
-
¼ tsponion powder
-
¼ tspsalt
Salad base
-
6 cups (180 g)fresh spinach
-
1 cup (150 g)fresh blueberries
-
1medium shallot, thinly sliced
-
½ cup (62 g)roasted walnuts, chopped
Directions
- Add all the "feta" ingredients to a small food processor and blend until creamy. Transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for at least 3 hours to harden*.
- For the dressing, combine the ingredients in a small bowl.
- To assemble the salad, add the spinach, blueberries and shallot to a large bowl. Drizzle over some dressing and toss to coat.
- Top with a crumbling of the feta and the chopped walnuts. Serve with extra dressing and feta on the side. Enjoy!
Notes
- †Refined coconut oil is coconut oil that doesn't smell or taste like coconuts. Using refined coconut oil is preferred to unrefined as the feta retains a more neutral flavour.
- * The longer it sits in the fridge, the more crumbly the texture will become.
Storage
- The undressed salad can be store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- The poppyseed dressing can be kept in a sealed glass jar for up to 4 days.
- The tofu feta can be kept in its container for up to 5 days.

Amazing and quick for dinner! Added beets and red onion which made it a beautiful and tasty composition :)
so refreshing and tasty !! I made this salad for me and my family and they loved it sm !!! :) I made it again yesterday and this time I used beetroots instead of the blueberries and it was AMAZING !!!
This salad recipe is so simple, yet so amazing! Never thought I could get my kiddo to happily eat spinach without any complaints! Thanks for all your recipes Sadia. ❤️ from Vancouver,CA
I am new to salads. Yesterday I tried your Caesar salad and it was so so good.
I eye-balled its dressing quantity and substituted few ingredients due to availability, so i had a lot left over (And it turned a bit like sauce consistency). So I decided to give this salad a try with the leftover sauce.
And it tasted amazing. I could have never thought that I can eat raw spinach.
I read all the reviews before trying because I was very skeptical and it surpassed my expectation.
You got me hooked to salads. I'll search more recipes now.
And btw, I used the same leftover sauce for crispy baked potato from another blog (Nisha's RainbowPlantLife). It worked perfectly.
Your recipes and contents are amazing.
This salad is so good, that when we had guests, they immediately wanted the recipe for it. I can only recommend it ;).
I don't leave reviews much, but this is the best salad!! Everything pairs so deliciously. 10/10 recommend :)
Been making this twice a week since the recipe came out! So scrumptious 😋
This tastes like summer - it's so refreshing!
Really nice salad recipe! The tofu feta is a big hit at our home and we use it in many different recipes - over grilled veggies and on bread as well. I really recommend both the salad and the feta on its own.
I absolutely love this recipe! My family loved it too.
The feta is amazing. Could the it be frozen to use at a later date?
Great recipe! Thanks.
Was a hit at a little dinner party :))
I make this every week now, amazing!!
Did anyone else find that they had a lot of "feta" left over compared to the other ingredients? 😅
Hi Sadia,
Thanks for this marvelous recipe.
I’d made the feta with olive oil and it didn’t get crumbly though I left it overnight in the fridge.
Do you think that the olive oil interfered on the texture?
Thanks,
Diana
The feta gets the 1st, 2nd and 3rd price altogether. It’s so good! Great recipe, Sadia.
I like the sauce as well, it compliments the salad beautifully.
Great summer Sunday lunch!
