To prepare tofu, tear into bite size pieces or cut into 1/2-inch cubes and place on cutting board lined with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels
Cover with another clean kitchen towel or paper towels, set a baking sheet on top and then something heavy such as a cast iron skillet or large book and allow to press for at least 15 minutes
Meanwhile combine apples, lime juice, lemon juice, maple syrup, craisins, cilantro, and scallions in a large mixing bowl then place in refrigerator to marinate
Combine sweet potatoes, pressed tofu, coconut oil, curry powder, and kosher salt in large mixing bowl and toss to combine
Spread sweet potato/tofu mixture out on large non-stick or foil-lined sheet pan in even layer and roast until sweet potatoes are cooked through and tofu is crispy, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly
Add sweet potato/tofu mixture, toasted cashews, rainbow swiss chard, sweet Lana’i orange peppers, and grape tomatoes to marinated apples and toss to combine
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Divide salad evenly in bowls or arrange on platter and serve immediately
