garlicky ginger tofu triangles

I want to eat this everyday.

Pretty simple, very delicious. Robbie was impressed. The recipe is from Vegan Street Recipes. I will make it again and again. I served it with these fantastic dumplings you can get in the produce section of Publix now. They’re these Nasoya organic tofu vegetable dumplings. I love them!

1. Press the tofu.
