Kale (and great thai dressing)

Are you eating lots of kale? we are. lots. Everywhere this year and I don't think I have ever brought it into the home before this year. This is a great way to eat it. I tend to use the kale that looks more like a darker, leafy spinach, but this is good too. Apparently the trick to making a kale salad is literally massaging the dressing into the leaf. Enjoy
1 bunch of kale, leaves torn into bite-sized pieces (rinse well)
1 T natural peanut butter
 1/2 t olive oil
1/2 t toasted sesame oil
1.5 t soy sauce (I used the low sodium variety)
1/4 – 1/2 t grated fresh ginger
enough water to make it a little runny (about a tablespoon)
a few sprinkles of cayenne
sea salt, to taste
small squeeze of lemon
Rinse the kale well. Give it a quick spin in your salad spinner if you have one or just give it a little pat to dry a bit. Combine the remaining ingredients to make a dressing and pour over the kale. Using your hands, massage the kale to soften it up a bit and distribute the dressing.  . Squeeze a bit of fresh lemon on top to brighten the flavors and toss.

Citrus Marinated Tofu with onion and red peppers

Recipe here. The sauce is amazing. I have left over so we are having it over fish tonight. I'm not sure if you really need to marinate the tofu (per the recipe). If i did it again, I would just bake the tofu and then pour the sauce over it. Delish. And, it actually looks more appetizing when you make it than the image.
