Blackened Tofu
Vegan, Gluten-Free
T – TOFU! I can’t let the letter ‘T’ go by during this awesomely amazing A-Z Blog Challenge without talking about Tofu. I really do love Tofu – the #1 reason is for its versatility. I look back through all the years, going through my recipe collection and pictures…tons of pictures!…there are countless Tofu recipes. Various Fried Tofu preparations: Lemon Pepper, Sundried, Blackened (See below); Breakfast – Hash, Breakfast Scramble (like eggs), Vegan Omelets; Vegan ‘Egg’ Salad; Desserts – Peanut Butter Pies and more! Low Calorie and it’s high in protein and calcium too. You can fry it, bake it, grill it and eat it raw. The way it takes on any flavor that you throw at it, is fantastic. Enjoy!
