Spicy Asian Bowl & Tofu Lettuce Wraps



 
Sometimes Asian just has to be on the dinner menu. To satisfy that craving, we made a Tofu Lettuce Wrap appetizer and Spicy Asian Bowls as the entree. Both were quick, delicious and easy to modify for meat eaters and vegetarians alike!
 
For the Tofu Lettuce Wraps you'll need:
1 head Romain lettuce, washed and seperated
1 block firm tofu
A handful of mushrooms, washed and diced
A Szechuan sauce of your choosing (we chose an organic & spicy one!)
* we recommend you dry off the tofu with a papertowel to remove any access moisture
 
All ingredients can be tossed into a saute pan and cooked until slightly browned. Add the sauce once heat is turned off and coat ingredients. Pile into the lettuce and enjoy!
 
Spicy Asian Bowls
 
 
For the Spicy Asian Bowls you'll need:
A variety of vegetables (we used baby corn, broccoli, shaved carrots and bean sprouts)
Diced Tofu or a meat of your choice
Wonton Noodles (this can be substituted with brown or white rice)
A sauce of your choice (we used the same Szechuan sauce in both dishes)
The broccoli and baby carrots were placed in a pan and cook for several minutes until tender
Add tofu, carrots, and bean sprouts
Coat ingredients with sauce, serve on top of cooked Wonton Noodles and enjoy!
 
These dishes are best enjoyed with a large glass of wine.
 
Cheers!
