Notes

If you want to scale back the pickles you can simply use the pickle juice in the dressing, leaving out the chopped pickles from the recipe, and you end up with a really nice tangy ranch pasta!

We made this as 2 lunch/dinner sized portions, but it could easily be served as a buffet or picnic pasta salad and scales well.

Extra-firm or super-firm tofu both work well for the buffalo crumb.

This was epic, we had it warm. I've used the whole blocks of tofu so saved a portion each of the buffalo tofu and the sauce to make some buffalo tofu cobs for lunch tomorrow!

Have made this a few times, and love it! I actually just eat it hot because I can never wait long enough to have it as a salad!
