This is a tofu recipe even your carnivores can appreciate. Pressed and drained tofu has the ability to soak up any flavors you add to it. Coating your Tofu slices in either Panko or gluten free crumbs mixed with Tarragon and pepper gives the first layer of flavor. After you sauté the tofu, it soaks up the added flavors of the mushrooms, white wine and grapes. It’s delicious, gluten free and vegan. Enjoy!
