• Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-low heat.
• When hot, add almonds, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) sugar and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) water to the dry pan.
• Toast, stirring often, until almonds are golden-brown and coated in caramel glaze, 3-4 min.
• Carefully arrange almond pralines on a plate in a single layer. (NOTE: Be careful — caramel will be hot! Do not touch pralines until cool.)
• Sprinkle a pinch of salt over top.

• Meanwhile, pat tofu dry with paper towels. Cut tofu in half parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have two square tofu steaks per block.) Using a fork, poke tofu all over. Season with garlic salt and pepper.
• When almond pralines are done, reheat the same pan over medium.
• When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then  tofu.
• Cook on one side until golden, 3-4 min. Flip, then cover and continue cooking until golden, 3-4 min.

• While tofu cooks, core, then cut apple into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add vinegar, blueberry jam, mustard, 1 tsp (2 tsp) water and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil to a small bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
• When tofu is done, add spring mix to a large bowl.
• Drizzle half the blueberry vinaigrette over top, then toss to coat.

• Thinly slice tofu.
• Divide salad between plates. Top with apples, then tofu. 
• Drizzle remaining blueberry vinaigrette over top. 
• Sprinkle with almond pralines. 

If you've opted to get tofu, pat dry with paper towels. Cut tofu in half parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have two square tofu steaks per block.) Using a fork, poke tofu all over. Season tofu in the same way the recipe instructs you to season the chicken breasts. Cook on one side until golden, 3-4 min. Flip, then cover and continue cooking until golden, 3-4 min.

Plate tofu in the same way the recipe instructs you to plate the chicken breasts.
