VEGETARIAN MAPO TOFU
Mapo tofu served at Chinese restaurants always contains ground meat, so I came up with this vegan version. The taste is not exactly the same, but it is still a good dish. I suggest serving it with cooked quinoa or brown rice. For more healthy gluten-free pesco-vegetarian recipes, please visit my blog, www.innerharmonynutrition.com.
