Buffalo Tofu Bites
RECIPE BY: Kozmic Blues
This is another recipe I adapted to be vegan from the Healthy Cooking Class I took over Winter Break. Original recipe used chicken tenders. I really like this recipe because of all the whole grains and seeds that were incorperated into the breading mixture, and the fact that they were baked instead of fried. The chef who created the recipe did not use exact mesurements, so the dry spices that are added to the breading mixture are my own measurements and are all marked "to taste". The chef was also a big fan of the Kashi brand whole grain crackers, but those are NOT vegan. I substituted Wasa wholegrain crackers instead.

I really wanted to like this recipe, since I love buffalo chicken, I thought this would be a healthy alternative. However, after trying it was clear to me that I really don't like the texture of tofu. I like tofu in sauces, cakes i.e. if I don't know its in there, but the texture of tofu bites just doesn't work for me. I did really like the flavorings though. It was just my personal issue with the texture, which I think makes it unfair of me to give stars.
