I found this recipe on Food.com and made some slight changes which have resulted in everyone I ever serve it to (vegetarian or not) demanding the recipe. You can find the original here:

And I have included my changes in the version below.
Avocado-Smoked Tofu Asian Salad
Ingredients:
-1 package smoked firm or extra firm tofu
-1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
-1 avocado, cut into 1 inch chunks
-2-3 dried chili peppers
-1/4 cup sesame oil
-1/8 cup rice vinegar
-1/8 cup sugar
-1/4 cup soy sauce or Tamari
-2 cups giant Israeli couscous (or rice, or your favorite grain)
Method:
Put the first 3 ingredients in a big serving bowl.
Shake vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce in a jar until the sugar dissolves completely (might be a few minutes. I let it rest, then shake, then rest, then shake, etc while I do other things around the kitchen.)
Pour the mixture over the avocado/tofu/tomato salad and stire gently.
Using a small saucepan, heat the seame oil over medium-high heat and put the chilies in. Keep them in there until they start to smoke, maybe 10-15 minutes. Turn off heat, use tongs to discard chilies, and pour oil over the salad. Stir to mix up a bit, and serve over your grain of choice.
