Fried Tofu and Sweet Potato Fries

I've been toying with the idea of going vegan but I can't give up my meat -- yet. Though I do eat this meal sometimes because it is:

Quick
Easy to Make
Brainless






What you need for the Fried Tofu:

Extra Firm Tofu
Assorted Seasonings (garlic powder, salt, salt - free or other)
Olive Oil (3 tblspoons)

What you would need to do is slice 1/3 or 1/4 of the extra firm tofu, dip in assorted seasonings (like you would do when preparing fried chicken) and then set it aside while heating your pot, add the oil, and add the tofu. For this recipe, I normally slice the tofu in equal portions they look like chicken fingers. When the oil is ready, place all tofu in the pot, cook for ten to twelve minutes and you are done. Set aside and let the tofu dry on a paper towel, then add to your plate and eat with a little bbq sauce or other dip if you prefer.

What you need for the Sweet Potato Fries

Frozen sweet potato fries
Pan
Foil
garlic salt
garlic powder
salt free seasonings


For the sweet potato fries, for one serving you should place between ten and fifteen sweet potato fries in the center of the pan, after lining the pan with foil (for easy clean up); and then about 1-2 teaspoons of garlic salt, garlic powder and salt free seasonings. Let it bake for about twenty minutes, then serve with the tofu.

Sweet potato fries goes great with ketchup or barbecue sauce. No lie, i love this meal and the total amount of the meal is under 300 calories and 6 grams of fat.
