Last night I made spagetti - we are a family who loves our pasta - and one thing I admit to missing is the bolognese sauce I used to make to top it off with but the sauce was made with ground beef so therefore I haven't made it, but last night I made somewhat of a bolognese alternative with Tofurky.
What is Tofurky you ask? Well it is a "meat substitute" made from tofu - last night we tried the Italian Sausage Tofurky and I must say it was delicious!
I browned up the 'sausages' in a pan with olive oil, crimini mushrooms, onion, garlic and red pepper.
I then let it simmer in a tomato basil sauce for about 15 minutes. YUM!
After we got half way through our meals I asked Derek how he liked it;
He said it was good, I told him it was Tofurky sausage and he said he knew and then I asked:
"Does it meet your expectations?"
to which he replied
"It doesn't 'meat' anything"
And we laughed...
That is my story of our first experience with tofu.
