- While the tofu is pressing, whisk together the miso and water until smooth.
- Combine with the lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, nutritional yeast, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
- Cut the tofu into small cubes and toss with the marinade. Place in the fridge and marinade for at least 3 hours, preferably longer.
Make the Dijon dressing
- Whisk together the dijon mustard, garlic clove and lemon juice until combined.
- Slowly whisk in the olive oil until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- Make the salads! Divide the lettuce, tomatoes, chickpeas, cucumbers and olives among 4 bowls. Top with tofu feta and drizzle on dressing. Serve immediately.
