The Earl of Sandwich might not approve...

But I do!

Thai inspired, western adaptation of a classic Japanese ingredient. You guessed it, Tofu!

Makes 1 sandwich, multiply by the number of guests

-A nice hearty multi grain bread.
-Some extra firm tofu drained, cut into slabs 1/4 inch thick, and soaking in soy sauce. 2 slabs per sandwich.
-Some lettuce or sprouts
-A few nice basil leaves
-Peanut butter, all natural is best
-Olive or Sesame oil

In a non stick skillet heat a thin layer of the oil, and place the tofu in a single layer, no stacking!
Let that side cook and firm up nicely.
Meanwhile, stack your sandwich. I just included basic ingredients. I like chili sauce, and thinly sliced onion on mine as well, just play around and add whatever you wish.


Flip tofu and let it get nice a brown on the other side. Place directly onto sandwich and serve with Asian Slaw or baby carrots. Healthy as can be!

I know, peanut butter and all this other weird stuff, how can that be anything but gross. Well it's great. You get nice warm tofu, crisp greens, pungent basil and to top it all off, a savory and rich surprise, peanut butter.
