YES, I am well aware that not everyone loves tofu as much as I do. Before you all start ROLLING THOSE EYES, you can easily substitute an equal amount of cooked chicken or peeled shrimp for it in this recipe. So don’t be a baby.. GO ON! TRY IT. I dare you. Recipe adapted from Eating Well When You Just Can’t Eat The Way You Used To by Jane Weston Wilson.
