Tofu Lettuce Wraps ~ Low-Calorie! These tofu lettuce wraps are so flavorful. I made two versions of this low-calorie recipe. If you like a touch of sweetness, add a little raw cane sugar to balance out the spiciness and salt. You might also consider adding maple syrup during the mushroom step. This recipe is worth a try! These Tofu Lettuce Wraps are also light and fresh, only 132 calories each. Enjoy! ~ Vegan, Plant-based, Dairy-free; Egg-free ~
Tamarind Peanut Sauce! This tamarind peanut sauce is excellent. Tamarind has a tangy yet tart or sour taste with a touch of sweetness. The added sugar, ginger and peanut butter in this recipe balances the sauce perfectly. Our dinner yesterday included brown rice with a mix of grains (green lentils, buckwheat, millet, quinoa, flax and chia seeds). On top of the rice were sautéed shiitake mushrooms, a piece of fried tofu – drizzled with the tamarind peanut sauce and topped with crispy shallots. Served with a side of sautéed spinach. The overall dish was extremely flavorful. Enjoy! ~ Vegan, Plant-based, Dairy-free; Egg-free ~
Balsamic Vinaigrette This Balsamic Vinaigrette is so simple and easy to make. This dressing is a definite “go to” where you can swap ingredients. It is the perfect topping for wraps, veggies, or this Power Salad listed. Add Dijon mustard for extra flavor and agave or honey to sweeten. Enjoy! ~ vegan ~ plant-based ~ dairy-free ~ egg-free ~ gluten-free ~
