Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.Place all of your spiralized vegetables and julienned carrots into a bowl and toss together to combine.Place your tofu block on a few sheets of paper towels. Place a few more paper towels over the tofu and place a heavy book or can on top, to squeeze out the water.After a few minutes, cut the tofu into chunks and toss in a bowl with soy sauce and white sesame seeds. If you have the time, let sit for 15 minutes to absorb the flavor. If not, that's okay.Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray and lay down the tofu chunks, season with salt and pepper and bake for 20-35 minutes, depending on your preference. I like my tofu a bit tough, so I bake it for 30 minutes. Make sure to flip the tofu halfway through. Once done, set aside.While the tofu is cooking, place all of the dressing ingredients into a food processor and pulse until creamy. Pour over the bowl of vegetables and mix thoroughly to combine. Top with avocado, black sesame seeds, scallions and cooked tofu. Eat with chopsticks!

Food Joke

A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband is not in bed. She puts on her robe and goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee. "What's the matter, dear?" she whispers as she steps into the room, "Why are you down here at this time of night?" The husband looks up from his coffee. "Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 16?" he asks solemnly. "Yes I do," she replies. The husband pauses. The words are not coming easily. "Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car?" "Yes, I remember," says the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him. The husband continues. "Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said, either you marry my daughter, or I'll send you to jail for 20 years?" "I remember that too," she replies softly. He wipes another tear from his cheek and says, "I would have gotten out today."
