A straightforward prep.

12 min prep + 0 min assembly cooking, approximately. Time excludes first cooking any ingredients listed as already cooked, and chilling.

1. Check that the tofu package permits eating without further cooking; otherwise cook and chill it before this preparation. Mash the weighed tofu finely with a fork.
2. Mash the tofu very finely with a fork; use plant-based ingredients throughout.
3. Blend the measured nut butter into the tofu with a spoon. Stir in oats if listed, adding a little potable water only if needed for mixing.
4. Dice washed apple finely. Toss it with the lemon juice, then fold into the prepared base.
5. Divide into four clean covered containers and refrigerate promptly.
6. Refrigerate perishable portions within 2 hours, or 1 hour above 90°F. Use shallow containers; freeze portions that will be eaten after the storage window.
