The Continuing Saga of Mom's Vegetarian Takeout!

Well I have to admit that sometimes I don't find the look of vegetarian meals all that appealing and therefore I choose not to cook those. This one I recently cooked, though, not only looked stunning but left heavenly smells wafting through the house. Sniff sniff. Mmmmm...

These are Asian lettuce wraps. Funny how the protein looks like ground chicken or turkey, but is actually crumbled tofu. Ahhh, my love for tofu -- well, not really, but shucks it's so easy to cook with since it sautes well, lends itself to any Asian recipe (of course), and takes on just about any flavor you want it to just by either marinating it or seasoning it with your favorite ingredients. 

Another Asian tofu specialty! This is a delicious Phad-Thai meal that I cooked up with tofu, bean sprouts, green onions, shredded carrots, a little napa cabbage, lots of garlic, and heaped onto a mound of sticky white rice. The sauce was to die for! 

This is all for now. Hmmm, wonder what I'm going to cook for the kids tonight.
