Elisa! I tried these for the first time and loved them! Who knew I liked tofu? Even my husband liked them. I have to admit I cheated a little and added some cheese, but they would have been just as good without it. Can’t wait to try more recipes. Thanks!
That’s great news Em! Thanks for giving them a try. They are one of Joe’s favorites :0) As long as you have the tofu and seasonings, you can really mix up the veggies to keep it interesting based on what you have available. Thanks for sharing your success!!
