Ingredients
Serves: 3-5 Time: 40 minutes plus 20-30 minutes prep
Tofu Lettuce Wraps
1 block extra firm tofu, pressed
1 Tbs corn starch
1 Tbs soy sauce
1/2 Tbs sesame oil
8-10 lettuce leaves, rinsed & dried
1/2 large carrot, peeled & thinly sliced
1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
Spicy Peanut Butter Dressing
2 Heaping Tbs creamy peanut butter
1/2 lime, juiced
1 tsp rice vinegar
2 tsp sriracha
1 Tbs soy sauce
Directions
Begin by pressing the tofu. Remove from the packaging, wrap in a few paper towels. Leave the wrapped tofu block on a plate and press using a cast-iron on top of the tofu or use a cutting board weighed down with books.
Press the tofu for at least 20 minutes.
Then, after the tofu is pressed, preheat the oven to 400ºF.
Unwrap the tofu, drain excess liquid. Cut the block into even rectangles, about 1/2 inch thick.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cornstarch, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix together well and add the tofu, evenly tossing until fully covered.
Place the tofu onto a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until lightly crisp on the outside.
While the tofu bakes, prepare the lettuce, carrot, and cucumber and mix together the peanut sauce ingredients into a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
Assemble the lettuce wraps with the baked tofu, veggies, and top with peanut sauce and extra sriracha if desired!

Ingredients
Serves: 2-3 Time: 30 minutes to 2 hours
Spicy Tempeh Mushroom Tacos
3 Tbs soy sauce
1 Tbs sriracha
1 Tbs sesame oil & canola oil (plus extra canola)
1/2 tsp five spice
1 Tbs smoked paprika
1/4 tsp liquid smoke
1 Tbs brown sugar
1 package tempeh, small diced
6-8 ounces white or cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
Cilantro, avocado, or pickled onion for garnish
Corn or flour taco tortillas
Shredded cheese (optional)
Directions
In a medium/large mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oils, brown sugar, spices, and liquid smoke.
Add the diced tempeh to the bowl, and use a rubber spatula to coat it evenly. Allow it to sit and marinade for 15 minutes or up to 2 hours.
When you’re ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350ºF to warm up the tortillas before serving.
Then, slice the mushrooms. Set a large skillet to medium heat.
Once hot, add enough canola oil to lightly coat the pan and cook the mushrooms for 5-7 minutes, until lightly browned.
Then, add the tempeh, saving some of the marinade.
Cook for another 10 minutes, adding more marinade until lightly caramelized.
While the tempeh finishes cooking, you can warm the tortillas in the oven for 10 minutes. If you’re using shredded cheese, you can melt the cheese on the tortillas during this time.
Assemble the tacos once everything is cooked, add optional toppings if desired, serve, and enjoy!

Salt & black pepper to taste
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium zucchini, sliced
1/2 yellow onion, diced
1 small red bell pepper, diced

Directions
In a large skillet, set heat to medium-high. Once hot, lightly coat with enough olive oil and begin sautéing the onion. Cook for 5 minutes.
Next, add the bell pepper, zucchini, and garlic. Cook for another 5-7 minutes.
Then, add in the vegetable broth, tomato sauce, seasonings, and TVP.
