Smoky Tofu and Ranch Salad

May 17, 2022 by Samuel Warde 1 Comment

A while back we made two discoveries that have transformed our cooking forever. First, we realized that making your own ranch mix for ranch flavors and dressing is extremely easy. Second, we realized that liquid smoke is basically a miracle in a bottle. Suffice it to say, this salad is smokey and ranch-y, and we love it!
