Thai Tofu Splendidness

As I said earlier, Iowa Girl Eats was my inspiration for this dish. I'm a lover of things that are not only spicy, but thai and good for you. While it wasn't my first time cooking tofu, I was nervous about the whole egg scrambling amidst zucchini. Needless to say, it worked out just fine.

Let the chopping begin!


After about 20 min, the marinated tofu was baked!


As instructed, I cooked up the zucchini and then made a little well to scramble up two eggs.


Holy yum! Just look at that mix of flavors and fabulous display.


And in case you're wondering what my favorite Pinot of the moment is...
I present to you Grochau Cellars Commuter Cuvee Pinot Noir 2007.



I found this one at our local posh market for just $16. Although it's a bit spendy for my taste, it was definitely worth it. Sometimes you spend a few more $ on a bottle of wine only to find that "yuck, Two Buck Chuck would have tasted better than this," but not this time! I give Grochau Cellars two thumbs up! And love that it's a local winery!

The tofu verdict: I'm a huge tofu fan. It's nice having a cheaper, healthier option to chicken or ground turkey once in a while. But it is also a fine line in attempting to feed men. Man friend said that while the meal was very flavorful, he wasn't such a fan of the tofu (his first time trying it) and would have preferred less of it on top of his noodles. I say, we'll try tofu a little more often and hopefully it grows on him. What about you? Have you tried to pawn tofu off on unsuspecting meat lovers?

Thanks for a great recipe, Kristin!
