Sloppy Tofu Recipes

TOFU SLOPPY JOES

Steps:

• Crumble the tofu to small bits (this can take a bit of time).
• Heat oil in frying pan and add tofu and chili powder (added to taste, I add tons, about 4-5 tbsp).
• Cook on medium high heat until tofu is crispy.
• Add garlic and onion and cook 5-7 minutes.
• Add tomatoes, a dab of ketchup (the more you add the sweeter it will be so omit it if you don't like sweet) and a dab of mustard and a drizzle of extra oil if you like.
• Let simmer, bubbling until sauce is thickened and tofu is tasty (about 30 minutes).
• I like to give it a lot of time to simmer so it's really tasty.
• Serve on whole wheat buns with salad and homemade fries.
• Enjoy!

TOFU SLOPPY JOES

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add diced onion. Cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add cumin and salt; saute until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Add tomato paste and break up in the skillet, 1 to 2 minutes. Add tomato sauce, ketchup, water, brown sugar, barbeque seasoning, mustard, hot sauce, and paprika. Bring to a boil; lower heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a separate pan over medium-high heat. When heated, add tofu and zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add vegetarian crumbles and sauce mixture and bring to a low simmer. Cover and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
