THE OTHER TOFU LOAF



The Other Tofu Loaf image

Minimal preparation, awesome in sandwiches, It's another version of my comfort tofu loaf. I ground the tofu and onion using my meat grinder attachment on my standmixer... but thats because I don't have a food processor at the moment. Serve with mashed potatoes and gravy. Oh and green beans if you are not a vegan Paula Deen.
