Better-than-a-BLT

YUM!

Ingredients:
Your favorite wrapper (wheat, corn, bread, whatever)
Ripe avocado
Fresh spinach
Tomato
Baked tofu

How to bake your tofu:

It's very simple, actually. Open your tofu package and drain the water. Wrap in a cloth and put your skillet on top to press out the water. Leave it here for 15 minutes or up to a few hours if you want.

Now, slice and put in a container with your marinade: a little vegan worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and herbs like garlic, onion and whatever you like!

Put some olive oil in the skillet and bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Check. If starting to toast, flip over. Repeat this process until it's as crispy or soft as you like. (The more you cook it, the more water you're removing from the tofu which makes it crispier. If you cook it long enough you'll have some tofu-jerky!) :)

Now place your ingredients in your wrap. I like small whole wheat wraps like this one. Just 150 calories for the pair, plus your toppings.

SOOOOOO good! We enjoyed with a side of shells and chreese (see next post.)
