Sesame Tofu

I've been using La Dolce Vegan so much lately, Sarah's other books have been languishing on the shelf. I pulled out The Garden of Vegan and made the simplest dish in the entire world. This is such a great recipe for weeknight cooking as the effort involved is practically nil. This dinner can be on the table in under half an hour. I kid you not!!


Here we have TA-DAAA!! Sesame Tofu. This recipe has 6 ingredients and that includes the olive oil required to fry it in. It's unbelievably good. The measurements in the book are for 1/2 a pound of tofu and it yeilds 1-2 servings. I used a pound package, doubled the other FOUR ingredients and had leftovers to take to work for lunches.

I made packaged garlicy ginger noodles and steamed some mixed veggies and voila! Dinner was served before 8pm for a change. Amazing!

That looks so good! I'm thinking about having a tofu training session with Ryan's mom soon. I should include this recipe in there too.

It looks good! I've been trying to do more with tofu, this is a great idea that sounds super easy. I might have to try it!

Meaning, that book is now on my list like Vivacious Vegan haha.

That looks really good Carrie. Is it very flavourful?

The soy feta is a brand called sunergia soy foods. They have a website, but it doesn't have the soy feta on it: www.sunergiasoyfoods.com
