Cool Tofu Snack

'Tofu Snack' is quick, easy, and perfect for the hot summer weather! It's great as an appetizer or healthy snack when you're not in the mood to cook. Take a slab of chilled tofu (meaning tofu that's been in the refrigerator), drain, and cut in half. Or if you're really hungry you can use the whole thing.

Required:
Firm Tofu, Vegetarian Oyster Sauce (you can get this at most Asian stores), Vegetarian Nori Furikake (thanks Stacey)

Slice drained tofu into cubes. Pour some oyster sauce on top and then sprinkle with Furikake. Oooh we're mixing Chinese and Japanese condiments together! You may want to repeat the condiment mixture on the second layer if you used all of the first layer. You'll see what I mean once eat the first cube.

Super cool!

My Simple Breakfast Crepe

In my last post I tried making a vegan crepe from Allrecipe.com which I decided was too sweet for a savory dish. Since I had leftover crepe mix, I had an idea to make a variation by adding a couple of ingredients. This is a super easy breakfast treat!

Required: Vegan Crepe, Fresh Blueberries, Yogurt (preferably Fagé - the fully fat kind)
Note: This recipe is not vegan, but you could substitute the Fagé with Soy Yogurt.
Optional: Maple syrup or honey


Take your crepe and slather yogurt. Sprinkle fresh blueberries. Fold in half. Top off with a little maple syrup or honey to taste. Simple and good!
