Tofu tacos

This is another recipe that I got from Buzzfeed (like the butternut squash mac n cheese) in an article about The Vegan Stoner that has easy, few ingredient, meatless recipes. I was intrigued.

Needed:
-firm tofu
-Soy sauce
-bread crumbs
-taco shells
-tomato and onions (or whatever you want for your inside fixin's)
-sour cream

1. Slice up the tofu so that it's slender enough to fit in the taco shell. I was able to get 8 slices out of a 12 ounce pack of tofu.

2. Cut up the tomato and onion and get those sautéing in the pan with a little oil.


3. While those cook, take your sliced tofu and dip it in soy sauce on both sides.


4. Then cover it in bread crumbs all over.


5. Push the veggies to the side if the pan and add the tofu.


6. Cook it for a couple minutes on each side, then put it in a taco shell along with a scoop of veggies and some sour cream.



So easy a stoner could make them!

They were delish. The tofu is so creamy and balances nice with the crunchy shell and sautéed veggies. I had them for dinner two nights in a row while the hubs was away at training and I know I'll be making them again. Very filling.


For now, I'm in St. Louis hanging out with the family till we mosey on toward Ohio for the Air Force Marathon, which is only 5 days away! In case you don't hear from me again, wish me luck.

And just for your viewing pleasure, here's some pics of me and the fam goofing off:
