I did have a great time at the shower. I got to see friends and Godchildren. What is better than that?
Of course there was great food. It was a brunch (I love brunch) and there was delicious chicken Marsala, yummy fruit and to-die-for raspberry cheese blintzes. If that wasn't enough, there were some yummy desserts too - fresh cake and homemade chocolates. AND - best of all - homemade chocolate covered Oreos. I ate waaaayyyy too much. But it was so good!!
So in honor of getting back on track, here is a quick healthy pizza that you can whip up on the grill. This will make enough tofu for 2 pizzas and then 2 wraps for the next day.
Tofu Garden Pizza
Ingredients:
1 pkg extra firm or firm tofu, pressed and sliced
1/3 C vinaigrette salad dressing (I used lite Caesar, but you can use what you prefer)
2 Flat Out Healthy Grain flatbread (you can use pizza dough or prepared crust, whatever you prefer)
1 ripe avocado, sliced and cubed
2 heaping handfuls of baby spinach
1/4 C vinaigrette salad dressing for "sauce" on pizza (use as much or as little as you want)
1/2 C grape tomatoes, cut in half
sliced or crumbled goat cheese (as much as your heart desires!)
Instructions:
marinate tofu in the salad dressing for as long as time permits. (thankfully I remembered to do this early, before dinner time!)
After marinating, discard extra marinade and grill tofu until desired doneness - usually about 3-4 minutes on each side. Slice or cube the tofu into smaller pieces.
Grill the flatbread on one side for a few minutes, flip over and add sauce. Top pizza with toppings, including the tofu. Close grill cover for 2-3 minutes to let cheese melt and spinach wilt.

Remove from grill, and your pizza is done!
It came out so yummy! But what I loved even more is the wrap I made with the exact same ingredients the next day. Instead of grilling, just place all the ingredients on the wrap and wrap it up for a sandwich for lunch. Yum!!!
And yes, I only made 2 pizzas, but all three of us ate dinner. The Toddler does love tofu and she ate half a pizza, all the time saying "tofu good taste!" The Husband ate the other half of the pizza and then went to play hockey. He doesn't like to eat too much before a game!
Do you have any good pizza recipes that would make a good wrap for lunch the next day?? If so, please share!
i seriously love this! except for the goat cheese. because well. i'm lactose intolerant. and bam. we've just bonded.
ReplyDeletei usually make my pizzas without cheese. and dude. tofu sounds awesome. just like you. and me. yay!
