Ingredient

Brown Rice
Japanese Wakame
Miso Paste
Block of Tofu
Hot Pepper past
Water
Agave
Green Onion
Sesame Seeds

Instructions

Cook for rice according to your rice insertions. The the wakame as many dried flakes and you would like add it into a pot of boiling water. Boil for 10 min. Boil some water in your kettle. Take a bowl add in the hot water with miso paste. Lastly add in the wakame. Take the tofu cut it into small rectangles, what ever thinness you want. I like to take a pan and and dry fry the tofu fist till both sides are lightly browned. Then I make the spicy sauce. I take a table spoon of the pepper past, a teaspoon of agave and as much water as you want to make a sauce to cover the tofu. Then add the sauce to the pan with the tofu in it. Bring to a light boil till all the sauce is thick. I then add the rice to a plate with the spicy tofu and a side of miso soup. Top tofu with some sesame seeds and cut up green onions. What is your go to meal when you need something quick?

Vegan Tomato "Salmon" Sushi

Being vegan doesn't mean we have to give up on yummy sushi! I am such a fan. And now you can enjoy "salmon" too! This is a simple recipe that I like to make the day before I want to make the sushi, I do this so that the tomato has more time to marinade.

Ingredients
2 Large tomatoes
1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tbsp kelp cut into small strips
1/2 tbsp nori cut into small strips
1/2 tsp minced ginger
1/2 tsp sriracha
1/2 tbsp sesame oil


Instructions
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the full tomato, let them boil till the skin starts to peal off of them. While the tomato are boiling add all other ingredient to a container you can seal up. Next add them to a ice bath. Once you can handle the tomato take them out of the water. Put it on a cutting board. Peal off the other skin. Cut the tomato into strips and take out the seeds. All you want to save in the fleshy part. Once you have the cut out piece then add it to the sauce we have made. Cover and leave in the fridge for at least an hour or up to a day. Add it to your favorite sushi rice and enjoy with any other vegetables! Do you like sushi? Do you like making it at home?
