Veg’chop Pasta Lifestyle
I became a vegetarian in 1985, a time when vegetarians were grateful if restaurants offered omelettes or mushroom stroganoff and knew better than to complain.
In the 1990s we were presented with fluorescent pink strips, purporting to be vegetarian bacon. Thankfully things have come a long way since then, but as our options improved other information came to light, such as the importance of protein in one’s diet, and the need to avoid over processed food. So, as a wider range of vegetarian and vegan food became available, we learned that some of it was not as healthy as we thought. Honest I tried, but frankly, even I am unable to make Tofu taste of very much, and yes I did marinade it in all sorts of concoctions, and the texture always left much to be desired.

Pan fried takes 3 minutes each side, and is absolutely delicious, with a nutty crunch. I have tried it in a stir fry, and will definitely use in vegetable wraps or with pasta in a sauce. The Mexican version was spicey with a little heat. I would, add it to a salad, or veggie curry. It also works well with cooling yogurt and mint and the original with crisp lettuce and tomatoes. I can see that I will be experimenting with this for some time.

Full disclosure, I ate some of the pieces on their own, as a tasty snack, but you may well have more restraint than me.
