Tofu Cannelloni




This was a quick go to dinner for the family. Pretty simple, just saute up some veggies add a little crumbled tofu and Wa-La, you got yourself a stuffing for pretty much anything, I looked in my cupboards and had a box of oven ready cannelloni noodles, and in my freezer a tomato sauce that I made a few weeks ago. Which made me happy:)

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion- small diced
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 red pepper- small diced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 3/4 block of tofu-crumbled
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • sea salt
  • freshly ground pepper
  • tomato sauce 
  • oven ready cannelloni noodles

In a saute pan, heat oil add onion and garlic saute for 3-4 minutes, add pepper and broccoli,saute until softened, add tofu, deglaze with balsamic, add yeast and season.
Stuff  into shells.
In a baking pan pour a little of the tomato sauce on the bottom, place stuffed shells in the pan, pour tomato sauce over top. Cover with foil and bake at 375 for 45 minutes.
