Down Home Cookin’

Yum! I made such a good meal tonight! It’s my version of some down home cookin’. I made marinated tofu, roasted green beans, and mashed potatoes. The marinade was based on Dreena’s marinade for her Tasty Tofu Tidbits from The Everyday Vegan. It’s basically soy sauce, rice vinegar, and hot sauce (chipotle). It made the tofu taste awesome! Next time, I am going to add even more hot sauce to spice it up even more.

Well, I’m glad you liked marinating the tofu that way… but I’m far more interested in those smashin’ mashed potatoes!!! – omg they look so good! And with the green beans – yum!!

Dreena~ The marinade was delish! I love the hot sauce in it. Matt & I love tatoes–with the skin on, ofcourse!

Leslie~ Thanks! 😉

This looks really great, why I am not marinading tofu in hot sauce any more??..and the smashed potatoes – I love those.
