Tasty Buffalo Tofu For Game Day Eats 

Any opportunity to incorporate Buffalo sauce is an opportunity worth taking! In this video we show you a tried and true cast iron pan frying method to crisp up the sides of the tofu before tossing it in a classic Buffalo-style hot sauce. This is a great vegan recipe to make as an appetizer alone, but we also show you how to punch it up into a full meal by adding brown rice, roasted broccolini and green beans.
Keep cooking, you got this!
