CURRIED TOFU AND GREEN BEANS
This a recipe I made from the April issue of Everyday Food. I am always looking for new tofu recipes and we love curry. I am posting it as it appeared but I made the following changes: I substituted coconut milk for the half and half, used 1 pound fresh green beans that I parboiled and a 14 ounce can of diced tomatoes with the liquid and omitted the water. This was quick and tasty and tasted great reheated the next day for lunch.
