A Tofu Piccata Poem
Tofu piccata for you, made by me, and served with a side of poetry 🎶
I had recently been drooling while watching a chicken piccata video and was feeling some major FOMO. “I WANT CHICKEN PICCATA but I don’t eat meat!” I’d exclaimed.
So?
After some flavor exploration, I chose tofu as the perfect protein substitute. Same classic lemon-butter piccata flavors, similar method of cooking, but inclusive of us vegetarian & plant-leaning folks!
I’m officially in my “let’s make it vegetarian” era and need your help! Please drop your ideas & recommendations in the comments on what I ought to make next!
Cheers & here’s to happy eating ✨
