I'm vegan and often get the question: What do you eat? Hopefully this blog can answer that.
My goal is to show that being vegan is possible and can be inexpensive. It can also be really expensive - just like any person's dietary preference/needs. I also really enjoy showcasing both chain and independent restaurants with vegan options as well as products that are vegan.

Lemon-Dill Dressing: on Pan-Fried Tofu and a CSA Salad [Vegan Mofo]
Happy Vegan MoFo Day 4!
So many great ideas on the giant 2012 blogroll of MoFo-ers! It's fantastic to read through what others are doing this fun-filled month.
So I made this dish a while back, when I was up to my ears in dill and did not know what to do with it all! After a Google search of something along the lines of "what do I do with all this dill!?" I came across a few interesting recipes and stumbled upon this Lemon-Dill Tofu from Oh She Glows.
I had everything except the tahini, but it still turned out great and was a fantastic addition to some pan-fried tofu triangles.
My sides for this meal include some homemade simple cabbage and carrot coleslaw with a light vinegar/oil dressing and some steamed broccoli with sesame seeds. The coleslaw and dill were from the CSA. The broccoli was frozen.
I loved the dill dressing! I used it on a salad made from greens, carrots and tomatoes from the csa and topped with some flax seeds. Delicious!
That lemon dill dressing is so vibrant and fresh sounding! Looks perfect with the tofu.

ReplyDeleteThanks! It really adds a great tang and bright summer/spring flavor as opposed to my go-to sauces of heavy, "creamy", etc.
