TOFU SLOPPY JOES
My veggie version of an American favorite made with tofu. My boyfriend who recently turned vegetarian loved them and said the sauce was even better than store-bought. Hope you enjoy these tofu Sloppy Joes as much as we did! This recipe yields a lot of Sloppy Joe mix and is even better the next day. I serve these with a side of fresh corn on the cob and a salad.

TOFU SLOPPY JOES
This has been a long time favourite for our family, even my 2 yr old and 3 yr old love this. We put the leftovers over nachos with some cheese, tomatoes, green peppers and onions. Oooh yummy!

Steps:
- Crumble the tofu to small bits (this can take a bit of time).
- Heat oil in frying pan and add tofu and chili powder (added to taste, I add tons, about 4-5 tbsp).
- Cook on medium high heat until tofu is crispy.
- Add garlic and onion and cook 5-7 minutes.
- Add tomatoes, a dab of ketchup (the more you add the sweeter it will be so omit it if you don't like sweet) and a dab of mustard and a drizzle of extra oil if you like.
- Let simmer, bubbling until sauce is thickened and tofu is tasty (about 30 minutes).
- I like to give it a lot of time to simmer so it's really tasty.
- Serve on whole wheat buns with salad and homemade fries.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place the block of tofu onto a plate, then place another plate on top. Set a 3 to 5 pound weight on top (a container filled with water works well). Press the tofu for 20 to 30 minutes, the drain off and discard the accumulated liquid.
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
- Cut the block of tofu down the middle, then widthwise into 1/4 inch thick squares. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 6 minutes, the turn the pieces over, and continue baking 5 minutes more. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and allow to cool. Once the tofu is cool enough to handle, cut into 1/4 inch dice.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion and green pepper; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the diced tofu, ketchup, sugar, mustard, and vinegar; season to taste with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 10 minutes. Serve on the whole wheat hamburger buns.
