Meal - Roasted Rosemary & Garlic Potatoes, Balsamic Brussel Sprouts & Red Cabbage, and Tofu & Tofurky

A full dinner.

First, prepare tofu. Cube and marinate with choice sauce. I cubed, soaked, covered, and placed it in the fridge for three hours.


Dish One: Roasted Rosemary and Garlic Potatoes

Fresh Rosemary.


Potatoes.


Quarter and put in mixing bowl. I don't use measurements that often anymore, however I will add estimate amounts in parenthesis. Add olive oil (couple tablespoons, enough to thinly coat), rosemary (about two sprigs), minced garlic (about 3 cloves worth), salt and pepper to taste. Toss.


Place in dish and spread evenly. Cover with foil and put in oven at 350° for 30-35 minutes.


Dish 2: Balsamic Brussel Sprouts and Red Cabbage

Wash and prepare brussel sprouts (about half pound).


Cut stems and half. Put in mixing bowl.


Half a head of cabbage, chopped.


Tomatoes. Preferably, cherry. I didn't have any so I just quartered the ones I had. Add to mixing bowl. Salt and pepper to taste, oil to lightly coat. Mix.


Lay mixture as flat onto a baking sheet. Cook for 10-15 minutes at 425. Next, stir contents, add some balsamic vinegar and bake for another 10-15 minutes.


Dish 3:

Stir fry pre-marinated tofu.


If your home is anything like mine, or you are anything like me in the kitchen, cover it. Protect that toddler from splatter!


Nicely golden brown.


As a last minute request from the upper management (aka my father whom is healing from major back surgery), I quickly fried up some Tofurky kielbasa, sliced it, and added with the tofu.



El Fin. Careful, it is HOT!



I loaded the plate up for my dear Daddio and he loved it. Maybe you will too?
