One fine burrito

March 23, 2009 at 4:18 pm (My brain, Tofu / tempeh / seitan, unrated)

I threw together a burrito the other day with some frozen, marinated tofu that was leftover from the tofu I prepared for chili.  Derek loved the burrito so much that he insisted I blog about it, even though it wasn’t particularly original.  The burrito was comprised of:

  • frozen tofu that was defrosted, squeezed out, marinated in peanut butter, soy sauce, tomato sauce, and garlic powder, and baked til crispy
  • diced avocado
  • cheddar cheese
  • smoky chipotle salsa from Frontera Grill
  • lettuce

Although the combination is not particularly novel, I agree with Derek that the burrito was certainly very tasty.

On a second attempt I cut the avocado into slices and sprinkled on top fresh minced garlic, salt, and lots of lime juice.  We ate it with a salsa verde, and the sour tomatillos and lime juice went great together.  Delicious.  I just need to record the amounts and make this a real recipe now!

    this post made me laugh. i continue searching for veggie meals that C and i can make on a regular basis in place of the ones we typically make (that are relatively meat-heavy). your sweet potato burritos have become a staple. what was the turkish red lentil soup you mentioned? have you blogged that one before?
