1 Review of Green Beans With Butternut Squash, Tofu and Maple Syrup Glaze

This dish has two components and my reactions to each were a little different. Loved, loved, loved the roasted vegetables and green beans. They are among my favorite vegetables a but until now had never put them together. The combination of hot sauce and maple syrup was perfect as it accentuated the natural sweetness of the roasted squash and onions without the cloyingly sweet fare that is all too common. I would give that part 6-stars if I could. I am somewhat new to tofu but am trying to eat more as I increasingly move towards more meatless meals. I tried to make this low fat by cutting the oil in half and cooking it in a nonstick skillet. Thought it went well and I did get a nice crust on the tofu. Did I love it? Not yet. But I did think it went well with the veggies as the saltiness from the tamari was a good contrast to the sweetness of the veggies. Thanks!!
